I want it all, but I don't want to pay for it ... so I ask the following
question: Does anybody know if the Bosch RA 1165 under-the-table router
base will work with the Skil 1825 router? I know there is a Skil router
base for under the table, but it apparently doesn't allow for adjustments
*through* the top.
The table that came packaged with my Ryobi router is starting to show some
wear and tear ... but it got me through some projects and taught me that I
really need to have a good router table.
I eagerly await the wisdom of the group.

Chance though, as Skil and Bosch are the same company. Lowe end consumer
and higher end pro tools.

Hmmm, kind of an offbeat request. Routers are very, very proprietary in
their construction, except for little things like use of porter-cable style
templates. I doubt your combination would work, but you can be the first to
report it to us.
Bob
I'll buy the base, and if it doesn't work with the Skil router, I'll either
return the base or take it as a sign that I need to upgrade the router ...
Still eager to hear whether anybody knows about this for sure.
Thanks as always!
