Default Micro Fence Adaptability to 2 Routers

Would this be an easy thing? I'm buying a Festool OF1400 and want a Micro Fence to fit it, but also want to adapt the fence to a Milwaukee 5616 solid base.

If I have to make an adaptor on my own, I have a lot of plexiglass stock and also different gauge threaded rod.

Hi Gary

I don't have the Festool Micro Fence or the Milwaukee 5616 but I have made my share of adaptors to do what you want to do,, this is what I would do, see below..

Hi: I have a few routers, and a Micro-Fence from the Micro Fence company. They sell
adaptors for a lot of routers and even the small trim routers. It is a versitile system. Hope this helps. Woodnut65
