mharwell01,
Where are my manners? You raise a point very close to my heart (look at some of the previous postings), HarrySin answers with great enthusiasm, and I respond to HarrySin. I fully agree with you that the U.S. should join the rest of the world and start using the metric system. Perhaps a new thread needs to be started on how we can integrate the metric system into our common interests.
I have a Makita router but I use the Oak Park base plates and the Oak Park template guides. HarrySin is correct that there is no way to use a 40 mm guide. I do wish there were larger template guides and base plates to accommodate them available. What I really want to see is an Oak Park base plate with 10 cm (4 in) opening and template guides and inserts available to reduce the opening to appropriate sizes. |
