" turnlock " You should have got a new router base place with the kit and a line up tool, do put the plate on your router and then put the guide you want to use...the guides can be tricky to get in and out ,I made a small tool to do that and I will post a picture of that, it makes it eay to install them or take them out...
In the kit you should have got two or three router bits one that will fit the small 7/16" guide ( in small red boxes)
If I recall the bits are 1/4" cove.1/4" letter bit (sharp point bit) and a 3/8" cove bit also...to be used with the 5/8" guide.
If you didn't get all the bits you can use a standard 1/4" straight bits.

Thanks Bob, just to recap the "spacers are 1/8 mdf, the support blocks are 1/4'
with 1/8" on top? You also answered my turnlock question. I only received one (1) bit, I believe it is the 3/8" cove but NOT the other two. I purchased a starter bit set along with the router, but they are up the mountains, (my wife was HELPING clean up for a party last week and put them away for me) lol but I will be going up tonight. I will play with this over the weekend HOPEFULLY and left you know of my findings. THANK YOU VERY MUCH One and ALL
