   I'm afraid I don't fully understand your question. If you are asking if a trim router is capable of flattening large live edge slabs, the answer is an unequivocal no. That is a task for a large router with a ½" collet and at least 2hp but preferably more. If on the other hand you are asking if a trim router is capable of cutting grooves in a top the answer is yes.

   thanks Esch5995 for the advise, I have bought an Makita 2hp router & it does the job well enough.Appreciate your guidance for the same.

   Well, you could, technically speaking, flatten a slab with a Dremel. But I sure as heck would never try. I wouldn't try a trim router, or anything with a 1/4 inch collet, either. It really is a job for a big router.
