ABSTRACT:
A plate-like guide for precisely positioning a plunge router for the purpose of boring a series of holes in a work piece. The plunge router is provided with a guide bushing having an outside diameter, centrally positioned in the router working face, through which the router cutter can be pushed (plunged). The boring guide is provided with a series of spaced pilot holes positioned on a center line. The inside diameters of the pilot holes are a close sliding fit with the outside diameter of the router guide bushing. The boring guide has five positioning means usable in pairs to precisely position the boring guide with respect to the workpiece. There are two groups of fence holes into which fence pins are screwed to provide a step variable fence for positioning the pilot holes with respect to the working edge of the work piece. There is a centering notch for aligning the boring guide with a centerline drawn on the workpiece. There is an end fence hole for accepting an end fence pin for positioning the pilot precisely with respect to the work piece end. There is a pair of fence rules on each end of the boring guide and there is an index hole to accomodate an index pin which will pick up a previously bored hole to allow the line of holes to be extended beyond the length of the boring guide. Integral clamps are provided to secure the boring guide to the work piece.
