Bought new bosch RA1171 router table. Connected pc895 under table. Works great ! Problem is using rockler guide bushings. How do I retro-fit opening to use rockler 1 1/4" guide bushings?
Will the bosch RA1100 templet guide be of any use?
Guess the easiest way is buy bosch router.Any ideas.

Hi Rolo

You can use a fly cutter and made the hole bigger, all you need is a good drill press and a fly cutter bit.

If you need a link where to buy one just ask and I will post a link to one.

Rolo, Bosch tables do not have provision for mounting PC style guide bushings. You can drill out the mounting plate to accept PC style, just leave a lip half the plate thickness for the guide to clamp to. (The guide bushing must be flush with the table top.)
