I got the official word today, Oak Park will not be developing the metric guide bushings. Where there is a will there is a way. I have contacted a shop and am in the process of getting the guide bushings Tom suggested made up. What I need to know is how many people are really interested? The bushings will interchange with Oak Park bushings and use the locking nut you already own. They will be high quality brass like the Oak Park bushings with close tolerances. At present there will be 4 sizes which used with 4 metric bits and one dish cutter will allow you to make many of Tom's designs. Full sized plans will be available in PDF format for a small fee. Other sizes of metric guide bushings will be available in the future. So here it is: Would you prefer these items be sold separately or as a kit? The more interest the lower the unit price will be.
