And if he does not have a split fence, try:
Get a solid straight piece of wood, say 1-1/2" thick, three to four inches wide and as long as your router table.
Cut out a semi-circle where the router bit goes. Select a size about twice the diameter of your edging bit. So if you use a 3/4" bit for the router, make your semi circle about 1-1/2" in diameter.
Get a length of vertical and general purpose plastic laminate. A bit wider as the wood above is thick, and each piece about 1/2" as long as the wood above is long.
Glue the vertical grade on the "infeed" side of the stick and the general purpose plastic laminate on the "outfeed" side. The difference between the two is usually between
1/32" to 1/16".
Trim up the plastic laminate.
Thus both surfaces get a long lasting wear surface.
To use, one uses another straight edge placed along the outfeed side and will position the fence so it just touches the router bit when the bit goes through the widest part of it cutting circle. The router is unplugged during this part for safety reasons.
Another method to position the fence is trial and error, with the routor turned off for each adjustment until the fence is correctly positioned.
