You might try harbor freight's online catalog---they sell all brands and all prices. They also have some good deals on factory rebuilt tools. I have bought a 12 volt Makita cordless drill with two batterys and the charger for $109. I also have the Dewalt 18 volt drill and 5 3/8 cordless saw...that is a very handy tool...but the drill is rather heavy to pack around for most house hold jobs...and be aware--those 18 volts have a lot of torque, and will twist a decking screw right in half.....or push it out the other side of the 2 x 4...so adjust your torque setting. As stated previously, the router is a very handy wood working tool, but is one of the most dangerous....be careful. If you live in the mid west you might check with the high scools, they used to offer night classes in wood working.
