Universal Router Edge Guide with Dust Collection, Fine Adjustment, Vacuum Adaptor (DW6913)

This fits the Workpro Router plunge base (Amazon ID B0BTRTPZK9) by using the narrow two notches of included rods and the rods adjust very smoothly. The Micro adjust to nudge it a little way to one side or another is an amazing trait I wish more router fences had. Sadly the stamped metal fences just can't function the way a quality item like this does. This has none of the dragging or wobbling and sticking during adjustment and it is a great headache remover! Since others do not mention it, here are the specs for the narrow mounting on the rod, with the wide holes about 1/2 wider. Rod Diameter 0.312" (5/16") or 7.92mm, Distance between the two rods is 3.3" 83.82 mm Only the plunge base of the Workpro router has the rod guide channels and locking screws so if your router has a way to mount a rod based guide.

This is a great improvement over my past edge guide - two aluminum rods from Home Depot with an mdf fence. This guide has steel rods, and the knobs lock down securely. The kit comes with knobs to mount the guide to your router. The knobs have springs to keep them from vibrating loose. The microadjust works best if you keep some tension on the lockdown knob. If you loosen it all the way to adjust the microadjust, it feels a little wobbly. Just loosen it enough to adjust, and it works fine. The plastic part that contacts the workpiece is smooth, and slides with very little resistance. The guide has a dust collection port with reducer. My flexible woodcraft shop vac hose fit the edgeguide without an adapter. By the way the woodcraft hose also fits the DW618 plunge router without an adapter too. Anyway I now have good dust collection through the plunge base for inboard cuts, or through the edgeguide for profiling cuts. A nice feature is the split fence, which you can slide outward to create an opening for the bit. Use the thicker rods for the 618 router. A previous reviewer stated that the rods screw together for a longer offset. This is not true. The thin set of rods are threaded to allow them to screw into the Dewalt 610 router. The thicker set of rods are not threaded. If you have a longer offset than this guide will handle, you would be better off using a clamp and guide. But for cuts near the edge of a workpiece, fluted columns, strip inlays, and mortises ---> this edgeguide is great!

I bought this as part of my DW618 router kit. I'm a DIY, amateur level homeowner/hobbyist. Con: well, not a biggie, but the edger's face was missing a set screw. I found a nice replacement at my local hardware store. As for the rest, I like this edger a lot: 2 sets of rods for attaching the edger to your router, the smaller, shorter rods thread into the larger set if you want a really big standoff. Previous negative comments about rods torquing and getting out of alignment when tightened down just don't happen with mine. Setup is quick and simple: make a coarse setting using the rod set screws, then fine tune your distance with the guide's... (drumroll)... fine tuning knob. Vacuum attachment is easily removed, I don't like my clunky vac hose dragging along while I'm edging (personal quirk maybe). Edger face set screws use either a flat blade screwdriver, or a T-20 Torx bit (nice!), when adjusting the fence face (wide or narrow, depending on what you're edging or your particular bit). DeWalt seems to prefer Torx and Hex bits to screwdriver blades or Phillips, a feature I LIKE.

Confusing why DeWalt doesn't include instructions.It works with a number of different routers. Instructions would have made life a bit easier. Took a bit, but I figured what was what, and how to use it. As stated, this jig fits multiple routers. It fits my VR 20v compact routers plunge base fine. My router uses the smaller guide rods. Note: This jig will not fit the standard base that the VR router comes with. There is another model jig for that. Also, I'm still not sure why there is a threaded end to the smaller rods. Must be for another application. Still shaking my head why DeWalt did not include instructions. There aren't even any online. Anyway, Once I got the jig squared away it was easy to set up and use. It works well and was a good purchase.

all good

Works perfectly with my compact router. A vast improvement on my old system

Guia muito bem acabada,útil,precisa e segura.!

After reading several other comments, I was curious about what I would receive (many complains about no instructions and a difficult to use product). As I suspected, this item is so obvious to use it doesn't need instructions... but even then, there were instructions in the package. Well designed, solid tool that will make a lot of projects safer and more precise!

Es una guía adecuada para perfilar, hacer caja para las puertas, corte y rebaje. Excelente aditamento para mi router
