Frequently Asked Questions
Should I get a Festool fixed-base or plunge router?
Festool OF routers are primarily plunge routers that can accept fixed-base modules for table routing. This versatility makes them excellent all-around choices. The OF 1010, OF 1400, and OF 2200 differ mainly in power - choose based on your bit sizes and material hardness. Windsor Plywood Sherwood Park can help you assess your routing needs.
What makes Festool routers worth the premium?
Festool routers feature micro-adjustable depth control, superior dust extraction, remarkably smooth plunge action, integrated LED lighting, and compatibility with the extensive Festool guide system. Professional woodworkers value the precision and repeatability for high-end furniture and cabinetry.
Do Festool routers work with standard router bits?
Yes, Festool routers accept standard ½” and ¼” shank router bits, depending on the collet installed. You're not locked into proprietary bits. However, Festool's own bit line offers excellent quality with optimized geometries for Festool guide systems.
Can I use Festool routers in a router table?
Absolutely. Festool routers excel in table-mounted applications with available fixed-base inserts and compatibility with most router table mounting plates. The micro-adjust depth control and smooth operation make them ideal for precision table routing.
