Black & Decker 7613 base plate replacement?

5417 Views 6 Replies 6 Participants Last post by  Scarfy
Hi all,

I have a Black & Decker 7613 Type 3 router with a broken base plate. The plate measures 6" dia. and has three mounting holes on a 2 1/2" BC. I cannot find an exact fit replacement plate online or at Rockler's; the parts websites show it as N/A and don't even give a part number. Hoping someone can advise if this router is a relabeled version of another brand/model so I can expand my search, or lend me some direction to finding a plate so I don't have to make one.

Thanks,

Ron

Hi Ron and welcome. You may be able to find a universal one that will fit. Lee Valley sells one that I think Milescraft makes.

Welcome aboard Ron. Try the universal plates as suggested. Should work fine.
Welcome to the forum Ron,

I have that same router and luckily the plate is fine. I use it mainly in a small table top router table with a 3/8'' round over bit. I've had it for many years and it works well.

Welcome to the forum I agree a universal plate should work but making a plate from lexan or plexiglass is not that difficult. Like Sticks suggestion I have made several. I started with this router table kit https://www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/tools/power-tool-accessories/router-accessories/41776-veritas-base-plate
from Lee Valley tools I have made many different plates using the tools that came with this kit.

Thanks, I found one from Peachtree. Was hoping to get one that didn't require me to drill holes, but that seems unlikely. Wanted to keep a constant, accurate radius.

Wish I'd have seen this before ordering the other...oh well...
