Routers

Routers use shaped cutters to help you create grooves in the wood or can alternatively be used to make decorative edges. They are another favourite of woodworkers as well as a number of professional tradespeople - adding one to your collection of DIY tools is sure to open up a host of potential projects and tasks to you.

It should be noted that routers are quite specialised tools. This means that while they don’t really function as an alternative to anything in particular, nothing works as an alternative to them. This makes them very handy to own, especially if you find yourself carrying out a lot of woodworking, or simply possess an interest in it.

Routers come in a number of forms, but like many of the tools we provide, you’re likely going to come across corded and cordless electrical routers. The former is more powerful, while the latter offers greater portability. This makes the corded router great for workshop-based work, while the cordless alternatives are the perfect companions for work that takes place on-site and/or on-location.

Our routers come from some of the top names in the industry, which means they boast quality designs and offer outstanding performances. We also offer a number of accessories for routers, so take a look through these if you’d like to improve the functionality – or even the user experience – of your router.
