Can anyone suggest a good router? I'm looking to start building my own enclosures and the first thing I'll need is a good, reliable router. Also, what kind of bits will I need? I plan to do flush mounts. I'll need a good template as well.

Routers?
Bosch
Porter Cable
Milwaukee
Dewalt (fair)


Get a plunge router, it will make you smile.



Bits?
Rounding over
Rabbiting
Straight slot


Get carbide bits as a minimum.



Set aside a good $250 for starters. Some drop $400+ easily.
