New Product Announcement
One of the latest offerings from Bosch is their GKF12V Cordless trimmer (2.6 lbs), which brings completely untethered routing capability for lighter duty tasks like laminate trimming, hinge mortising, fluting, grooving and inlay work. The factory model has no holes to mount a guide, so we’ve designed an acrylic Sub-Base that will allow our Edge Guide or Circle Jig to be connected and provides mounting options from either side of the motor. I’ve used it for inlay work and enjoyed it’s ergonomic design.

We can now fit the Cordless XTR01 Router From Makita
This 18V, 4amp little monster offers variable speed from 10-30,000 RPM and eliminates the power cord from your routing. It’s motor can fit in our Plunge Base with the same adapter ring we use for the Makita RT0701C, or our Edge Guide and/or Circle Jig can be mounted directly on the Makita factory base. Add our battery-operated light ring and you’ll enjoy a brilliant and completely untethered routing freedom!

Light Ring Battery Option
We have now developed a battery option that allows the Light Ring to operate with a 9V battery, making the use of cordless motors a truly “untethered” set-up. This accessory includes a fabric pouch with a velcro back that fits a 9V battery, the battery itself, a 12″ velcro strap that wraps around a trimmer or high-speed rotary tool motor to attach the battery pouch to, and a 5″ patch cord with right-angle connector that plugs into the Light Ring’s power jack…everything you’ll need to provide a “cordless” power source for either of our Light Rings.

Seeing is Believing!
At long last, our light rings are available for both of our Plunge Bases! We’ve been working on these ever since the miniature LED lights we used to offer were discontinued. The solution to our problem is a printed circuit board light ring that features six LED lights that bathe the work area with the most brilliant light in the industry. Suggested and co-developed with our customer and friend Frank Garcia, these little gems will provide virtually shadow-free illumination like you’ve never seen on a woodworking tool before…and without the need for batteries!

Announcement
The LED lights that we supply with our plunge bases have been discountined by their manufacturer and we shipped out the last of our inventories today. We are working on a solution for this problem and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We are in search of a new LED light source that will be battery-powered and are also working on a second solution that will offer a twelve volt light source as well. We will be announcing the arrival of either or both solutions in the very near future. As of April 27 however, our Plunge Bases will not include the LED light sources that they’ve previously included. The LED batteries (AG5) will still be sold through our website.

Customer Feedback
Recently a customer of ours posted on a forum for Festool owners complaining that we didn’t carry a mounting bar for his router. We noted his aggravation and have restocked the item, so the mounting bar for the Festool OF 2200 is once again available. Select it when buying a mounting bar, circle jig, or edge guide.
Back in Stock!
