You can use a laminate trimmer to build an entire guitar. They don't have the grunt of a plunge router, so cavities need to have most of the material removed with a drill or forstner bit beforehand, but it's totally possible.
They are scary, but really useful. One of my favorite tools. And Makita is a great brand.

7 coats of wipe on poly in and no sign of any gloss. After a little consulting with the guru (DB), I have come to the conclusion that my tin of poly is mislabeled and is actually satin.
Good thing: it looks great and I'm a big fan of matte finishes
Bad thing: I wanted to do it a bit different this time
There is just no way I'm gonna strip it all off and start again, so satin it is.
The neck, on the other hand, after 7 coats of tru oil is looking like glass. Bit of a shame that it'll end up matte as well.
A few more coats on each and then cure for a fortnight. Fun times.
