There was unfortunately a fire - somewhere. As a result an insurance company sold a large block of water-damaged woodworking tools at salvage prices (BTW everything's sold already). I was in the right place at the right time and was able to acquire a Leigh D4 jig and the manual (a little waterlogged though) for $41.00.
The down side is that any bits, collets or bushings there might have been were separated so I don't have those. Also any adjustment tools or addons are missing as well.
My questions:
Other wreck discussions mention that some vendors sell 'kits' of bits for the D4. What's my best option to get a useful, if minimal, set of bits, bushings and collets? Any specific manufacturer or size bits you would recommend?
I will be using a Bosch 1619 plunge router probably. I have both half and quarter inch collets, but sounds like I should get an 8mm sleeve and use 8mm bits. True?
Do I need some special bushings for the D4 or will standard PC-type bushings work? I have some PC-style bushings and the adapter for the Bosch. I'll have to unstick the manual pages to read through it and check that out unless some of you have some quicker answers.
Thanks
