NH, one of the nice things about Bosch is you do not have to decide today. You will be able to purchase the fence any time. You can easily make your own circle cutting jig from some 1/4" hardboard. Simply remove the sub base plate from your router and place it face down on the hardboard, mark and drill your holes, you will need to countersink the screw holes slightly. Measure from the edge of your bit the distance you need and drill a 1/16" hole in the hardboard. A finish nail through this into your wood is all you need to pivot for a perfect circle. Mark the measurement on the board for future reference. Renenber, the hole does not need to be centered on your jig, just stay an inch or so away from the edge. I will post a photo of one of these this weekend.
