Greg,

The prices are in Aust $, so multiply by 0.58 to convert to US$.

  Kerry,
          Thanks for your response. It's nice to make your acquaintance =
even if only through text. I'm looking into this RouterMaster. It seems =
a bit steep for my pocketbook but I haven't ruled it out. Thanks for =
your interest. I wonder now if those were prices in US dollars?

      Kerry,

              That certainly is an interesting looking contraption. =
Looks like you simply attach your own personal hand drill to it. I've =
seen these here but never in radial arm fashion. Is that you using it? =
(sometimes I have trouble with gender from a name, no offense I hope). =
Is this something you use? What kind of run out does one get? Seems like =
there would be room for some inaccuracy depending on how your hand drill =
is mounted to the apparatus. What is the depth of feed?=20

              Thanks for taking the time to forward this to me.=20

      Greg
