Bosch Colt Plunge Base Template Guide Adapter

Bosch Colt Plunge Base Template Guide Adapter

Description

I wanted to do some template routing with my Bosch Colt palm router using a Bosch Plunge Base ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009ZQUB5O ) but didn't have any guide bushings. Bosch sells a template guide set specifically for this base but the reviews are mixed, people complaining the spot welds break easily. ( https://www.amazon.com/Bosch-8-Piece-Router-Template-RA1128/dp/B071CMF8RK ). I already own a bushing set for my larger 1/2" shank routers, so why not use those? This part adapts the acrylic base plate of the Bosch plunge base to accept "standard" ~30mm diameter bushings; the bushing set I have is from Rockler ( https://www.rockler.com/router-guide-bushing-kit ) Tap the 2 holes with an 8-32 tap. Need (2) 8-32 0.5" machine screws to finish the install.
