Working with bushings for in-lays

[schlott]

Starting my first in-lay project. Have a rockler bushing kit, a in-lay kit for 1/8 inch bit, plus dewalt plung router and colt lamant trimmer. Would like to use 1/4 bit for the in-lays and am having trouble figuring out the bushing sizes for doing recess along with the insert with the same templete. Is there anywhere that give a long list of the bushing sizes requried for this operation for various sizes of bits ..... I think I will use the 1/4 bit but I may have occation to use other sizes.

Hi Jeff

The chart below may help also..

Plus Below You will see the bushing I made and use for the 1/4" bit, saves time hogging out the pocket for the inlay insert.
