info on an old tool

Nothing is wrong with it. Initially, I wanted to change out collets to accept a 1/2 ". Found that. But I want to know the year to see if I can get a manual and see what other accessories are available.

I have moved some pretty heavy loads on 3" SCH 40 PVC pipe even over rough ground.

to glennjanie - HUH?

to vic - I do not know if the router will "qualify" as old by these guys standards but you may want to check out

Seems they may be having site issues.

Also check out http://www.forums.woodnet.net/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php
and visit the woodworking power tools section. many old time woodworkers there. I'll bet one of them has your router.

He means 3 inch, schedule 40, polyvinyl chloride

Otherwise known to plumbers and others as white plastic pipe for drainage or any other neat project you can come up with....like on top of your van to hold stuff.....normally sold in hardware, big box plumbing supply stores.

There are different schedules of pipe as they get larger, stronger, thicker.

I would still recommend some plain old recycled galvanized pipe, it's available everywhere.
