I've been looking around and I can't seem to find a cheap basic router. I have a simple project at home where I want to make a decorative border. I can find cheap drills and most other power equipment but every router I find is over $100. Where should I look? Thank you.

Keep in mind that the lower cost routers generally have lesser quality parts and design. They tend to wear out faster than their counterparts due to the rpm speed...

In the Midwest, we would go to Menard's. The prices are cheaper than Home Depot. They have a good, cheap in-house brand called Tool Shop.

Cheap tools are very expensive because you will just end up having to buy two or three to get the job done. Inferior tools produce inferior products.

If there are any pawn shops near you, give them a try. Sometimes they have reasonably priced tools. Used of course but serviceable.

CRAIGSLIST.ORG Those are local people, getting rid of stuff for cheap on there. www.craigslist.org. Select a numerous bunch of localities and search each. You can then have that US Mail to you for about $4
