Clear Baseplate for Craftsman Routers?

Mar 21, 2005 14 Replies

I'm looking for somewhere that sells clear (Round) baseplates for Craftsman routers.



I looked at Rockler, but no luck, several other places too. Rockler has one (not round) that would probably work that is supposed to help prevent tipping, but not what I'm looking for. Thanks for any help.

... Just go to your local glass shop and buy a chunk of whatever size you want -- it'll cut easily and is readily trued up.

Lee Valley, Home Depot, Loews, and, would you believe, Sears.

Not to mention Woodcraft.

Ok, how about a model number or something since everyone is in such a helpful mood? I looked at Rockler, didn't make the road trip to the other stores and didn't find the part on their websites.

Oh, BTW, I'll bet Dairy Queen has one too if I just look hard enough, right?

Obvious, but since I just stopped by a Sears Hardware store to browse this afternoon, have you checked there? I saw a clear base for Craftsman routers hanging in plain view.

Thanks Doc, got it!! Appreciate the real help.

Google Pat Warner. Has the plate you need.

I did Email Pat Warner, several days ago, but still no response (twice). Wondering if he is on vacation or something?
