Router tool for and method of producing workpieces with alternating

A power tool for trimming laminate having a motor, a motor housing, interchangeable bases, and a clamping ring. The motor housing has a lower portion having a smaller diameter than that of the rest of the housing. The clamping ring extends from and over the base and clamps around the lower portion of the motor housing. The interchangeable bases are formed as a trim router, laminate trimmer, offset trimmer, and tilt base trimmer, all of which clamp onto the lower portion of the motor housing so that the same motor can be used with any of the bases. The motor housing is also rotatable relative to the base into any one of a plurality of relative angular positions without affecting depth of cut of a bit.
