I am going to mount a Milwaukee 5625 3.5hp router in a table. I am considering a plate instead of just mounting it to the top with a predrilled hole as suggested by Pat Warner because it seems to me that it would be nice to close up the size of the hope when using smaller bits and opening it wide open for large bits.
I kind of like the WoodPecker plates but I do not know if I should use the TRL Phenolic Plate for $39.95 or go the full route and buy the Cast Aluminum plate for $79.95. Quite a difference in price!!!! Both plates can be ordered drilled for the 5625.
Has anyone used both or either of these plates and what is your opinion?
Thanks! Allen
