Guide:
Use the
template
guide when
employing
a
template
for producing a
large
quantity
of identically shaped
products.
As shown
in Fig,
13,
secure the
template
guide
to
the
base
of the
router with two accessory
screws.
At
this time, ensure
that the projection side of the tem-
plate guide is facing the bottom surface of the base of
the
router.
A
template
is
a
profiling
mold
made of
plywood or
thin
lumber. When making
a
template,
pay
particular
attention
to
the
matters
cescribed
below and
illus-
trated
in
Fig.
14.
When using the
router
along the
interior plane of the
template,
the
dimensions
of
the
finished product
will
be
less than the dimensions
of
the
template by an
amount equal
to
dimension
"A",
the
difference
between the radius
of the template guide and the
radius of
the bit. The reverse
is
frue when using the
router
along
the
exterior of
the template.
Secure the
template to the workpiece. Feed the
router
in the manner
that the template guide moves
along
the template
as
shown in
Fig.
15.
Template Guide
Adaptor:
If
you
are
using
a
template guide
adapter,
it
is
possible

pro-
duced

The
template
guide
adaptor,
like the
template
guide,
is
at-
tached to
the base
with two
accessory
screws.
Attach template
guides made
by
other
