Do you have a personal favorite Robbie? As I'm just thinking of making the tool before my next build the last on with Dave Whites mod seems to have the majority vote if you have the space.

I used the laminate trimmer with tilt base for years because that was all I had. It worked well. The jigs are nice and both work really well. I guess it all depends on how much space you have in your shop for storage.

Robbie, I use that same PC laminate router but have not seen that tilt base, is that commercially available as well?
Thanks, great video as always.
