I'm new to the forum, but I wanted to get some other points of view on MFK 700.
I have been using mine for a couple of months. With some good and not so good results.
My biggest complaint is the lack of visibility. The dust hood on the horizontal base should be clear plastic.
I really like the option to change bases.
That go me think of other base options.
Here goes.
1. A smaller vertical base like a traditional laminate trimmer that would have an under scribe attachment.
2. A router table base.
3. A vertical base with a larger opening to accept larger bits, like my ogee bit.
4. An offest base.
I am interested in your ideas as well.

I would like to see a plunge base to be used with the LR-32 accessories.

Sounds like you're wanting this to emulate something like the Bosch Colt installers kit. I wouldn't mind if they did that, but I don't see that happening. Maybe other companies will make those accessories for the MFK 700? |

Here is another idea. What about a guide fence for the horizontal position. Instead of the sensor bearing.
