Don't tell anyone but my BC110T is my favourite speaker, it never sounds wrong and I've had a couple of sound engineers, when mixing the band at festivals, describe it as the best sounding bass cab they've ever heard. It's a little gem that just gets the balance right.

I will take your secret to the grave.

 

I'm in a similar situation. I turned up for a big band gig once and there was an audible gasp from the band members when I started playing through it. No FoH with that one.

Routers are vicious!

Maybe we need to run a wiki of some sort on routers, they are probably the most difficult power tool to use. It's much safer all round to only use them with a jig or mounted on a table.

 

I have a 1/2" router that I use for cutting kitchen work tops and any big jobs I do like shaping architraving or skirting boards. I pretty much won't/can't use it freehand for anything I have router tables so the machine is static and I move the workpiece, I also have an ELU 1/4" router which has a bit of a soft start but even so you can't start it enywhere near the workpiece as it still needs a lot of strength and skill to manuvre. It's roughly 1HP so it's literally got a kick like a horse and routers operate at really high speeds so it's like guiding a gyroscope, it wants to go it's own way. I round all my edges with it in mounted in the router table and move the cabs. I'm wondering about getting one of the little trimmers for the odd small job.
