Thanks guys for the info, I called Makita and they recommended a 1/4" shank to 1/2" cutter for the router, I'll use a biscuit cutter set for the router for the biscuit joints.

I'm would say i'm keen DIYer, have used routers and this is the first time I'll be fitting new kitchen worktops, I'll need to make about 6 joints. I have a makita 3620 router, this DOESN'T have 1/2" cutter. It has 6mm or 8mm collets. I also have the trend combi 650 worktop jig. Whilst...

Hey Blas, not sure what version of FF you are on, the newer versions have been a bit picky with network settings. First off, update FF to the latest version. Check settinsg in Tools - Options - Advanced - Network. On the Connection section, select settings and set to Auto detect. This is the...
