Now that my table saw has arrived, my next purchase will likely be a router. My novice hobbyist needs are, for now, pretty basic. I mostly intend to use it for roundover and chamfer edging but might eventually get fancier with ogees and the like. I've been reading into it for a while and there doesn't seem to be a lot of consensus on the topic. On one side many people suggest getting a midsize 2-1/4 HP combo kit with a stationary & plunge base as it's the most versitile. On the other, some say that these types of routers don't excel in router table mounts, and that I'm -really- going to want to do most of my routing on a table anyway. And if I'm going to be routing on a table, it seems to make sense to get on of the 3+HP behemoths that have integrated through-the-table lifts as separate add-on lifts can be expensive. That, combined with a handheld trim router, would seem to cover the bases better without being -too- much more expensive than a single midsize. So, I'm thinking maybe I can start with a DeWalt 611 stationary & plunge kit for my basic edging and get the 3HP Triton and a table when my needs expand? If that's not the wisest route I'm all ears.
