Planning in buying a router that does 1.5hp. Brand = Ryobi.
Will 1.5 hp be good enough?
When i buy the router, what else do i need to buy to start cutting perfect circles?

Well do both routers come with ¼” and ½” collets?
You are going to need a ¼” spiral bit, and a flush trim bit with a guide bearing (prefer ½”). I would also recommend a rabbiting bit with a guide bearing.
like lets say you wanna make kick panel baffles, with the rabbeting bit, you can make the speaker flush with the baffle, or if you wanna do some flush plexi, countersink the edges.Originally Posted by LivinLife
