Might have used routers and bits for onsite installations.

There were 22 workbenches in this shop and probably 35 routers of varied si=
zes and shapes. There were at LEAST 75+ bits lying in the tray - I sorted =
through what I wanted (2 were still in their original plastic bags and prot=
ective coating on the edges) They sold 9 Powermatic table saws (don't reca=
ll the model) before they ever moved out of the building.
