This may be old news for some, new news for others.

In Woodsmith vol. 30/ # 177 on page 42, there's an article... "Working with tools". They mention the Bosch template guide baseplate for the Colt. Uses the PC bushings.

A very interesting article about the "palm router".

Enjoy.

Hi Bob

You're very welcome. I wouldn't call you a cheap sob... just a smart guy and friend.

I know that somewhere here on the forums, there has been much talk about the Colt and the lack of a plate to accept any type of guides. (Without having to create or rework one). I received myWoodsmith mag. the other night and was thumbing through it, and there's the article about Palm Routers. They speak of the guide baseplate being available now, only hoping that others will find this info useful.

Is that the Bosch PR009 or the PR010 they're refering to in the article? I'm a bit confused because I was looking into getting a guide bushing set for my Colt and I don't really know what my best option is. I've never used guide bushings before, so bear with me.

According to the magazine sources, it's a PR20EVSNK. They are indicating that there is 4 different base plates available now. I don't know what the differences are between their models, when I was going to get a colt, RL stepped in and interfered. There are a few members here who have the colt, perhaps they can help clear up your confusion.

I should add a small note, the Trend T4 (TD4000) is also mentioned in the article.
