Title: Vintage Porter Cable router
Post by: genog on June 23, 2022, 11:16:43 PM

I keep denying that I am a collector of vintage power tools, but I just can't pass up an oldie in excellent original condition. 
Recently I bought this delightful Porter Cable router. 
Once again, I just couldn't lay off.   It's in great original condition.  And runs like new.
It resides in a very well made case. 
Cleverly designed, I assume, made by the original owner
