I have never used this router for that, but I did accidentally do that with a PC router on a router table. I don't recommend it at all. It trimmed the bone and flesh along with the fingernail. **Q: can it be used for wood doors and frames for hinges** A: Yes, but it is a much better used as router than a door or frame hinge. **Q: What is the set of drill bits should I buy for this tool. I bought the MLCS 8377 15-Piece Router Bit Set with Carbide-Tipped 1/2-Inch Shanks and are n** A: This is a 1/4" collet router. If you want to use 3/8" (new to me) or 1/2" get a 1/2" router. I've used routers for 45 years. Own a 1/4" and two 1/2" Here's a quick guide: 1/4" router is the most widely useful, can be held in one hand for quick work, your arm doesn't get tired as fast as with a larger router. This one is good for hinge guides and door installs, laminate trimming (laminate trim bits with bearings), round over of the edges of boards or plywood. Makes a neat no slivers edge, get 1/2", 3/4" diameter cove bits (these will make 1/4 and 3/8" from the edge curves) I get these with bearings as well. (If you want less of a curve, use less depth, the curve is not symmetrical--no one will care. This is what I usually grab my 1/4" router for (I've got a Porter Cable 1/4" that's 40 years old. Can't figure out how to take it apart to replace the cord. Rather than a $60 trip to the tool repair I'm thinking of this one, vacuum dust collection is a plus). Shelf dados, usually 1/2 to 3/4" wide, is best done with a more powerful 1/2" router, but you can get by with this with two passes (overlapping) of a 1/2" straight bit. Plunge routing: always use dust collection. Freehand scroll work: 1/8 or 1/4" round bits- I don't do this, others do. If you don't yet have a router, or a specific shop need, get a 1/4". If you think you need one of those $400 router tables: don't. Make your own or buy a jointer. Figuring out how to make a router table will teach you about making jigs (you can make a fence that has finer adjustment than the fanciest most expensive one on the market) Direction of working. There's a correct direction to running a router along the edge of a board. With plywood, pine, fir, spruce, etc.. going the correct way can rip out long splinters. If you first make a very shallow pass in the 'wrong' direction to knock off the edge, then go normal depth in the correct direction, you can avoid this. (I still don't know if I want this router or not. There were 6 opened and reclosed boxes (returns?) at the Home Depot. Why?) **Q: can you set this up for a table router?** A: This router is an excellent hand held router. All 3 of its different style bases are smaller than what can be mounted to any standard plates available to fit the two common 8x10 and 9x12 cutouts in router tables. Its depth adjustments are crude compared what most people expect of a table mounted router. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the router is great i have used it muitiple times with most of ... *by N***2 on 4 April 2015* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This Router Has No Chill and Neither Do I Anymore *by T***R on 8 February 2026* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excelente *by E***Z on 21 November 2018* Buena máquina, buenos materiales ## Frequently Bought Together - Makita RT0701C 1-1/4 HP Compact Router - Genmitsu 65mm Diameter Aluminum CNC Spindle Holder Spindle Mount for 3018-PRO, 4040 Series, 3020-PRO MAX V2, 3018-PROVer V2 CNC Machine - Genmitsu 65mm & 69mm CNC Dust Shoe, Compatible with Most 65mm/69mm Spindle Motor and Compact Router, Hose Adapter Inner Diameter 38mm (1.5″), Transparent --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hu/products/59532452-makita-rt0701c-1-1-4-hp-compact-router](https://www.desertcart.hu/products/59532452-makita-rt0701c-1-1-4-hp-compact-router) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hungary* *Store origin: HU* *Last updated: 2026-06-17*
