A router assembly includes a base portion with a foot portion with a workpiece contact surface, and a cylindrical motor receiving bore above the foot portion. A cylindrical motor housing portion is configured to be clamped within the cylindrical motor receiving bore and a battery receptacle portion is fixedly positioned with respect to the cylindrical motor housing portion and configured to couple with a battery. The battery receptacle portion includes a cavity with a mouth providing access to coupling structures in the cavity, an uppermost part of the mouth defined at least in part by a horizontally extending planar surface portion. A display is supported by the cylindrical motor housing portion such that when the battery is coupled with the battery receptacle, with a portion of the battery within the cavity, a portion of the display is positioned higher than the uppermost planar surface.
