Fitting this new parallel edge guide (side fence accessory) to your CRB7 base plate (100-097) gives you the ability to make dado cuts up to 7-1/2" from the edge of your stock without the use of a straight edge. Traditionally a router's edge guide is large, difficult to set up and has a disappointingly small range for dado cutting from the edge of your workpiece. In contrast, the CRB7 edge guide is breathtakingly simple and easy to fit to your CRB7 router base. It has a much greater range (from 0" to 7-1/2"), getting deeper in from the edge of the board with the accuracy your woodworking demands. This new edge guide also benefits from the accuracy of the CRB7’s micro adjuster which precisely controls the distance between cutter and the edge of the board. To make dadoing even more accurate, fit the CRB7’s 2” offset bridge handle (included with CRB7 Base, Part #100-097). The offset bridge handle locates the operator's hand almost directly over the board edge; giving you ultimate control over your woodworking dado cuts and making this accessory the most valuable routing dado jig in your shop!
Machined from solid ¾” clear Perspex plastic, 2 of its 4 brass threaded inserts attach it directly to the CRB7’s base plate. The other 2 inserts are located in the face of the edge guide allowing you to add a sacrificial piece of stock (see additional images). This sacrificial stock prevents damaging the edge guide with the back of the router cutter when edge molding. If you own or plan to buy the CRB7 Router Base Plate, you should strongly consider adding this accessory to your shopping cart.
