Makeshift Plunge Routing
You can adapt a standard router with a screw-lowering mechanism to allow it to make plunge cuts. Fasten a hose clamp around the waist of the motor housing to stop the plunge cut at the desired depth. Loosen the router’s tightening cam halfway and spray inside the base with Teflon lubricant.
