    Best Small Plunge Inlay Router-Base /Which One To Get?

    I have been wanting to do some inlay work and have been looking at different small bases to use with a Foredom rotary tool or a Dremel. And was hoping to tap in on everyone’s knowledge and experience.

    1. Which is best as far as a speed aspect the Foredom at up to 18,000 rpm or the Dremel at up to 32,000 rpm? Due to the extra small diameter of inlay bits. Does speed matter that much?
    2. Which base is everyone using? And have you try different ones? Or what one would you recommend.
    3. Ware or what kind of bits are you using and brand wise?
    4. Best videos u-tub or otherwise that are the most useful?

    Here are some bases that I am reviewing. Most are about the same price range except the Micro Fence which I feel is a really good base but priced out of budget for the amount of inlay I would be doing.
