  Apart from more chippers and width capability, is there much difference to this set? https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B072MJ2V9J/ref=ox_sc_sa…

    This one is much easier to set up and adjust - you just set up blades according to width required and micro adjust by clicking the dial.

  For someone with zero clue about woodworking, what can you do with these that a router can’t do?

    I think the main difference is speed. This would be a lot faster than a router. I've really wanted to have access to a decent dado set about twice over the years. It's a lot of money for something even most woodworkers will not use a lot, but if you're churning out work quickly then this would be a great time saver.

      if you are building a timber framed house, and either charging or paying for time this would be much faster than a router …. if you are just building an extension or reno, then router could do the same as you probably have more time and are doing framing yourself,

        Do table saws get used much for framing? I thought it was mainly hand held circular saws and multiple, quick cuts if they need a lap joint. My experience of that side is fairly limited though.

  Approved by Sigmund Freud!

    Some Freud router bits have a mark engraved on the side labelled "minimum insertion". I'm sure even Sigmund would have had a little chuckle at that.

      Though he would have preferred a Mumo set instead

  Does it give you a socio-sexual explanation whenever you make an error while woodworking?
