    If you cut the square notch larger than on the original base , you can use the square guide , the hole should have been cut last with a router bit which would have given you a perfect centre, good video overall .

    The center hole should have been made last after the plats was mounted. Marking the center hole with the actual router arbor insures accuracy.

    Thank you. I am making a similar base for my trim router, but want to drill the centre to take guide bushings.....

    Is that extruded or cast acrylic? Cast acrylic usually has a slight thickness variance just an fyi

    Hey, so idk if you touched on this, I might have missed it, but does a larger baseplate technically make the router more stable. For example, would a 8x8 baseplate be more stable than a 6x6? I'm looking to make a new baseplate for my router sled so that's what I'm trying to figure out

      Sorry for the delay getting back to you but the short answer is yes I use these bases for things that I am tryyng to hollow out like small bowls or vanity trays ect. Hope this helped. The thicker the plexi the less flex in the base.

    Can always use bigger! 👍🏻

      I agree the bases these small routers come with make them feel so top heavy and unstable, especially rounding over at the corners

    Are you going the cut a recess out to put collets on the base? Great video and can you do a video on the router itself?

    I love things made out of wood, unfortunately I was born with 10 thumbs. No matter how hard I try it always ends up a crooked mess.

    The video would have been better if you just got on with the job without all the extra commentary...silence can be golden
