Metal Router Manufacturers
Metal routers were sold by the companies listed below, though some companies
actually had their routers manufactured by others. The
Stanley
router design is based on a patent granted to Henry
Cope
in 1884.
The amount of information presented on router models varies from company
to company. If you would like to help improve a type study for a given router
model, please contact Lars Larson or Jay Sutherland.
