Imran, Mac has posted a good method for calibrating the work table of the FD250 to the trajectory of the cutting bit. MY FD250 did not work well until I calibrated it. When out of calibration there is

Hi David, I have a FD250. I bought it used and it did not have the morticing option. IMHO, this option is needed to make slotting an enjoyable experience. It adds a rack & pinion (terminology may be

i have the FD 250 but never liked it much. It does the job and bets a router or chopping but it likes smaller mortises better than the 5/8" I usually did. There was also a slight variation between end

I'd buy a Multirouter in a heartbeat before an FD250. Never liked that machine. It always wanted to pull into the wood. We even added a gas spring device to it to counteract that tendency. We tried
