What did that router do to you? No need to sue eh?

k i get the idea of what everything else was used for,

but what is the router generally used for ?

 

[808_bass 10+ year member]

router to cut the speaker holes usually. i use a bunch of clamps, titebond 2, brad nailer, air compressor, router, jasper jig (makes cutting holes 1,000,000x easier), 90 degree angle clamps and usually a couple beers..

Router is used to cut the holes (like mentioned) and also for rounding over port edges, box edges, flush trimming, etc. You can do many many things with a router.
