So far I have found Porter Cable 89X series at 2.5 HP and the Milwaukee 5625-20 3-1/2 HP. Does anyone know of any others?

I thought a hitachi had it, or maybe hitachi was coming out with a new model with one? Can't remember where I heard it, so I may be wrong.

Or you can add a router raizer to several different routers.

I believe Bosch now has a fixed base accessory in the $60 range, which is adjustable from the table top, though I think you still have to release the clamp before adjusting.

I believe it offers a through the table adjust.

Bill is correct, the Craftsman (Bosch) 2.25 hp kit does have above table adjustment and includes the T-handle wrench.

The Milwaukee 5616 2.25 HP router also has the through the table adjustment.

So far of all these I like the PC and will probably get one next month to mount in my new TS table wing.

The Hitachi M12v has that ability iirc.
