Explanation:
I found مسحاج التخديد Nesrin suggested in the dictionary. But I don't think a common worker would be familiar with such a term. The common term workers usually use for router is الفأرة

هي الأداة المستخدمة في حفر الخشب، تعرف بالفأرة لتقارب الشكل وأسلوب العمل حيث تقرض الخشب جزءا جزءا للوصول إلى شكل نهائي.

  -> Depending on the attachments you add to the router, it can do all the above and more. I guess it is the local use that spices it up.

منشار الصينية


Explanation:
منشار تفريغ

A router was a woodworking tool used to rout out (hollow out) an area in the face of a piece of wood. It was a tool particularly used by pattern makers and consisted of a broad-based wooden hand plane with a narrow blade projecting well beyond its sole. Since about 1960, it has been replaced by the modern spindle router which was designed for the same work. Further refinement has produced the even more recent plunging spindle router, which is even better adapted for many types of work.
