CLEAR ROUND SUB-BASE

Router Woodworking

Could be that seeing the work a little better could improve your routing and add a measure of safety. I can't imagine why a transparent round subbase is not standard on all routers. My replacement subbases are available for the routers listed below:

1. Porter Cable (full line).
2. DeWalt 610, 625, 618.
3. DeWalt 621, cutter hole is centered on the 7-5/8" diameter, (see photo).
4. Bosch 6" diameter fixed base routers.
5. Bosch 1613
6. Bosch RA 1166 (Bosch plunger for 1617EVSPK)
7. Makita 1100 series fixed and plunge.
8. Fein RT 1800.
9. Milwaukee: All fixed base
10. Triton TRC-001
11. Generic 7" round plate, collar or 1-3/4" cutter hole. You must drill holes for your router. (Has 2 small holes in it used for manufacturing.)
12. Porter cable trimmers 7310/310 oversized (5") round subbase.

The cutter hole for the 621 oversized plate is centered on the 7-5/8" diameter. The plunger is a lot easier to manage with this subbase and you can guide off a straight edge without much ado too.

The PC collar guide system is compatible with my subbases and might save you Bosch owners a little if you already have a set of PC guides.

It's always a pleasure to see the work, the cutter, and your scribelines. My clear acrylic plates will allow you to do just that. Moreover, they are fully machined and supplied with new hardware. A centered counterbored cutter hole for the PC templet guide bushing is standard. A 1-3/4" diameter cutter hole is also a standard option for the larger (bearing guided) cutters. Readers concerned with collar cutter centeredness please see the Collar Guide and Sundries links.
