Hi Very True

I wish they make the bolt pattern the same for all routers " Sure would make life easier " I don't think it would be a big deal to make them all the same.

3 holes I think would be the best on the same bolt pattern and the same size of screws for all of them , one size fits all thing...
I'm sure most companys look at the bottom line all the time it would save them tons of money if they would just do it all the same way.

Or just add more holes to the router base so it can fit any router table or drop in plate...I think it would be a big selling point for them," Our router will fit any router table "


I have one drop in plate that must have 8 bolt patterns drilled out.
