kbreudi Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 So im tired of cutting holes with my jig saw and them turining out looking like shit, so instead of a big router, i was wonder if this will work http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores...uctId=100057028 it has a 1/4" collet and i would use a spiral up-cut bit for it. So will this work with the included circle jig to make some 6 1/2" rings as well as sub but outs? Or is 5 amps not enough power.

meade916 Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Get a router and buy a jasper circle jig....thats my 2 cents.

kingsuv Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 That will burn through bits too quick. A router would be the better overall choice IMO Designing, building, and shipping boxes. Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out. not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torres Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 that'd be ok for smaller holes i'd think...but i'd get a router anyway with a jasper jig. can do big and small holes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banginAltima Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 If you want to stay on the cheap side, that will work. Another thing to think about is how many boxes do you build. If you are someone like Mr. Meade get a router. A few extra bucks and you have something that will last a lot longer. If you build it, db's will come...

Stephen Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 thats basically the same as a rotozip. I used the rotozip with circle cutter and it does a pretty shitty job and is slow as hell. I got a craftsman router and jasper-jig and its night and day you can cook bacon shirtless if you're not a pussy...lol not hatin, but am i wrong here it looks as if the amp is not grounded its hooked directly to the battery. it that the way it should be.
