Review: Cumplió con su propósito
Review: OEM is best. - I decided that taking my aftermarket bench top router table apart was too much of a PIA. OEM part. Fits perfect. THNX desertcart. Much easier than the 25+ mile drive to the local parts distributor. With Prime this has better value than $$ for shipping.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how large is the hole in the bottom?  The base that comes with the router doesn't fit most bits I would use.**
A: The exit hole in the bottom of the base is 1 ½"; the hole in the baseplate is smaller by enough that my largest bits, which are OK at 1 ½",  were too large for the baseplate opening. I found a couple of replacement baseplates from third parties that would solve the problem, but I opted to remove the baseplate and attach the base to a simple router table. Sorry that I didn't keep the information about the replacement baseplates but they were not hard to find. Making the simple router table I built is demonstrated in the YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYrevm64sjc&t=537s. He even mounts a Makita trim router. After implementing his fence, I decided the simpler approach for a table fence described in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgA-69nnKFo&t=143s was the approach I would take. Hope this helps.

**Q: Will this base work with 1 3/16" bushings for use with templates?**
A: Yes! My set of eight 1-3/16 router templates fit perfectly into my trimmer base. I have three bases; one for the router alone, one on a special multi-purpose base, and one on the underside of my small router table. This flexibility allows me to simply transfer my router to any of the three uses.
