    Default Anyone Use this set-up?

    I was reading through some threads today and read a few comments about mico-routers. Does anyone have any experience with this Dremel set-up?
    A Dremel 355-01 Plunge router with a small edge rounding bit/

    Dremel 335-01 Plunge Router Attachment - Power Rotary Tool Accessories - Amazon.com

    And I guess my question is, how do you hold the scales in place in order to run the router around the edges?
    Thank-you

    This probably should have been posted in the workshop section.

    Rather than take the tool to the scales,take the scales to the tool. IE using a router table greatly simplifies the process.

    Depends how much you are going to use it and what you are going to do with it.

    For a few dollars more, $54 the Stewart McDonald all metal version is a much better precision tool.

    Luthier sites have all kinds of adaptations and jigs for these, to improve precision, worth taking a look at.

    Thank you! That is the way I will go. I've book marked their site.
