Edge guides control the path of the router and cutter to cut parallel to the edge of the work. I make my edge guides from dense clear cuttings of Jatoba, Walnut and other hard woods.
Adjustments are easy.
It can be used with the Porter Cable black bakelite sub base, or, for more control, with my offset router sub base. There are no knobs or other high profile components to spoil its silhouette. Hardwood and aluminum, both friendly to the hand and the work, are the materials of the edge guide body. All edges are polished, deburred and they can be repaired. Many of the handling difficulties associated with edge guide routing are absent with my tool.
