An apparatus for use with a portable router, a small template, and a template guide to rout virtually any shape onto workpieces that would normally be considered too small for standard portable routers to handle. The apparatus comprises a main body for supporting a router; locating means for locating the router with respect to the main body and mounted on the main body; support means extending down from the main body, for supporting the main body on a support surface for movement across the support surface; and a template guide mountable on the router around the router bit and extending below the support means, whereby, in use, with a workpiece and a template secured to the support surface and with a template on top of the workpiece, the router is supported by the main body and the support means above the template and workpiece and the template guide abuts the template to guide the router bit around the template.
