| Forum Contributer Supreme Forum King  | Hi Jeremy Just one more way to skin this cat  ,, you can use a standard 3/8" OD brass guide , the guide just needs to slip into and out of the finger template below you will see a set at the right price http://www.grizzly.com/images/manuals/h0983_m.pdf http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=95160 http://www.harborfreight.com/manuals...5999/95160.pdf The Craftsman is .400 OD the 3/8" is .375 OD but it will slip right in and out..and you will have a full guide set on hand for other jobs.. you just need to make sure your router can take on the 1 3/16" guides...========= Quote:

| Registered User Supreme Forum King  | I have the very same DT jig from craftsman. I'd have to look in the manual to see what they call for. I do believe that if you have a 1/2 and or a 3/8 bushing, you should be fine.

| Registered User Supreme Forum King | I know a few days have passed since this posting, I did find some info from manual. It states that the bushing sizes are listed on the templates along with the bit sizes needed per template guide. They should be printed on the top side of the templates. You should also have 4 templates. Hope this helps.
