The Router Maniac, Router Tables and Woodworking Tools
Thanks for visiting us at The Router Maniac. Over the years the Maniac has been transformed a few times and grown a lot. But you will still find some great information here that you will not find anywhere else on the Internet. Anyone can go to a site and buy a router table or other woodworking tool. But most people are more careful and do a little more research to not only get the best price on a tool, but to make sure the tool is the best tool for your particular workshop. Not all tools are the same and most sites are just focused on the facts and specifications. We know router tables and woodworking and it is our passion.
What you will find:
Tool Comparisons
You will find tons of relevant comparisons of router tables and other accessories. Simply by putting two tools side by side you can quickly figure out what the differences are. You see this all the time on computer sites, so we have decided to implement it on ours as well.
Video
Video is hot and its here to stay. There is a ton of it out there, but who wants to spend the time looking at all the different sites for videos that interest you. We do the work for you by making our own videos as well as publishing videos that are already available on other sites like You tube and Google Video. This helps you with your research.
Articles
You will find all sorts of guest bloggers and authors sharing their knowledge, projects and ideas to better your woodworking hobby.
Of course we offer great tool offerings in our store page. We pride ourselves in having a good pulse on all the brands and try to show you what is available across the Internet. This gives you the best opportunity to get the deal you really want.
So come on in and stay a while. Feel free to come back and leave a comment or two or subscribe to our RSS feed.
