I am just about done on an XYZ table measuring about 6' x 3' x 1'.

I was previously using a cheapo Princess Auto 7A router. Seemed to be burning out the brushes in it though.

I intend on doing cutting with 1/2" cutters in pine. Is the above router suitable for this kind of cutting (or even 3/4" cuts, 1/3 to 3/4" deep) or would I require a more powerful / rigid router. Thanks for advice.

Running xylotex motors 400 oz in 10 TPI 5 start.

ps. I would like to do sign cutting as a hobby but this requires alot of cutting obviously. I will be purchasing carbide cutters as well but which router do I need that won't burn out.

That's way underpowered to 1/2" bits 3/4" deep in a single pass. It's also limited to 1/4" shank bits. You want 2HP minimum, and even that might be underpowered. A lot of people start with the Hitachi, which offers the most bang for the buck.

thanks again Ger

however, where can I find a mount for said router?
