Hey everyone! I'm on the hunt for a decent router plane that's around $50. I usually use my Milwaukee routers, but I'm trying to incorporate more hand tools into my shop work during my free time. If you have any suggestions or know of other routers at different price points, please share! Thanks!

I've seen router planes pop up in a Facebook group that deals with used hand tools. They typically go for about $75, but you might get lucky. Just keep your eyes peeled!
Man, I wish I had jumped on router planes five years ago when they were super cheap—like $20-30! Now it seems like they’re all collector's items, and harder to find.
Honestly, making your own router plane could be a fun project! There are tons of plans out there online. Just check out YouTube for some great tutorials on how to do it.
