ABSTRACT:
A router with a revolving spindle having a cutter on the end has a housing supported by a face plate. The face plate is coupled to the housing via a pair of articulated joints, which may be adjusted to a selected one of many possible angles relating the supporting plane of the face plate with the axis of the spindle. The face plate contains a relatively large hole through which the spindle projects with said cutter being positioned beyond the supporting plane, so that the cutter may be seen during normal operation. A protractor scale is engraved on at least one of the articulated joint parts to identify a cutting angle. In another embodiment, a plurality of click stops are provided on one of the articulated joint parts for accurately setting a selected one of several angles to which the joint may be moved.
