I was in Argos buying rechargable batteries yesterday and noticed a router on their sales board.

It's in their half price sale so it might be worth a look at a measly £30. I know nowt about routers so my apologies if this is a pile o poo.

im not sure about that brand or anything but.
i originally bought a 90 dollar ryobi router a couple years back(2 i think, maybe 3)
but at any rate, it lasted it..... 8 months before the lil tightening mechanism(it was a spring loaded peice) started to wear down, and i was in te middle of someones project body when the thing slipped and literally jumped while it was going.
i remember it chunked out the wood and ruined the template.
so i took it in explained it and bought a 300 dollar monster.
so if you got the cash and expect to be using it alot, get something worthwhile.

Like I said, I know nothing about routers. I just thought that it might be good for some light work at the price.
