| Registered User Forum Geek  |  Which hole pattern should I get (plate for a Bosch 1617)? Ok, after contemplating lots of different options I’m going to buy a pre-drilled plate and routing template for my Bosch 1617. I also have the under table base on its way for it. I know that base has holes for the standard Bosch 4 hole pattern and the more popular 3 hole (PC 690 I believe). So. If I have the option of getting a plate either drilled for the Bosch 4 hole or PC 3 hole which one should I get? I think 4 screws are better than 3. But then again the PC 3 hole would give me more options in the future. Should I just flip a coin? Thanks guys! |

| Registered User Member | Been there - done that- which plate is best? I purchased the Oakpark Universal Plate which fits the Bosch, Craftsman and others. The universal plate allows you to mount several different routers using one plate. Check out their selection, I am sure you will be happy. Using a plate for one specific router limits your future choices. Three holes vs four holes are not an issue at all when mounting a router. Two holes (if they exist) is another question. I hope you find the suggestion useful. |
