Overview
Not a handheld router despite the category label, the Shop Fox W1812 is a stationary planer moulder that comes with its own stand. A corded electric motor drives the cutter, and the base is cast iron.
Having the stand, a blade, a wrench and a dust bag in one package gets the machine set up without extra buying, which is the reason to consider it. The limitation is power detail: no horsepower, feed rate or amperage is listed.
Who it's for
Hobby and small-shop woodworkers with a fixed bench area and a high-voltage circuit are the intended users. A person who moves tools between job sites, or who needs a router, should buy something different.
Pros and cons
- Cast iron base
- Blade, wrench and dust bag supplied
- Heavy, needs a fixed location
- Motor power and amperage not listed
- Filed under routers in the category
Performance notes
The cutter spins at a fixed top speed, so cut quality depends on blade sharpness and how fast stock is fed through. The cast iron base absorbs vibration, which helps a clean surface. Dust leaves through the bag, which fills quickly on heavy cuts.
