This may be a simple answer, but wanted to check with the resident experts around here.
I am creating a router table and using the Jessem MDF Template to create the opening for the router lift. The instructions call for a 3/4" O.D. template guide bushing with a 1/2" straight cut router bit.
As you'll see in the attached pictures, I am not getting enough depth out of the cut and the lock nut is actually coming in contact with the brass template guide which as you can guess, is causing the bushing to loosen.
My question is, should I look at getting a longer bit or is there an extension that can be used?
Thanks in advance.
