Two questions:
1. Does anyone have the Makita router slider that fits SP6000 rails?
It looks like similar routers will fit, such as Trend, which use the same fence bar size and spacing. If you have one of these gadgets, have you tried this?
2. Also, I've tried to find distance stops to fit Makita rails and failed. Does anyone have a source for commercially made ones?
The Festool ones don't fit (I know this for certain), and Makita's own web site is infuriating - it has parts diagrams, but no pictures of the many accessories (just really meaningless "descriptions" that tell you nothing).
I'm so annoyed by the Makita site I will complain in due course, meanwhile I need to find some distance stops if possible... or make some myself. I don't want to waste the time if it's not necessary though.
