FAQs
What is the difference between a plunge router and a fixed base router?
A fixed base router has a stationary base that is locked in place at a specific depth. It is suitable for tasks that require a consistent depth, such as edge routing or decorative work. In contrast, a plunge router has a spring-loaded base that allows the router bit to plunge down into the material, making it ideal for tasks such as mortising, dadoes, and grooves. The depth of cut on a plunge router can be adjusted to allow for precision cuts at different depths.
Are Makita routers compatible with third-party router bits?
Yes, Makita routers are compatible with most third-party router bits, provided they have the appropriate shank size for the router's collet.
What is the maximum depth of cut on Makita routers?
The maximum depth of cut on Makita routers varies depending on the model and the type of router bit being used. However, in general, most Makita routers have a maximum depth of cut of around 2-1/2 inches with a plunge base, and around 1-3/8 inches with a fixed base.
