The nice folks at Fedex dropped this off yesterday:

Now I can finally build that mortising jig and move forward on my nightstands.
 
Sa weeet.
Interesting case design too.

As if another air-blown case isn't bad enough . . . this thing is huge. If I did work outside the shop I could really see appreciating it; lotsa little stash spots inside. For me, its going over the rafters with his friends.

I have the 5615 for freehand work and the 5625 in the table; now the 5616 for plunge work. I swear this is not intentional. Thank goodness for the Bosch stuff; its getting awfully red around here.
 
Nice get, Glenn. Sounds like you're getting quite a stable of red.

Ya know, you can always mount a trolling motor on that case and use it at the lake. :p
 
Congrats, glenn...

I've heard nothing but good things about the Mil routers. Look forward to seeing it in action:thumb:

I smoked the motor on a 1½ hp Mill Router awhile ago. It was from a BORG though and maybe not up to good standards. I replaced it with a Porter Cable for whatever that was worth:dunno:
 
Looks like a great kit. I really liked my little 5615 BodyGrip...the 5616 has more power plus the EVS. I've heard others comment that the plunger is excellent. Enjoy! :thumb:
