Hi,
I have a couple of routers that don't have fences and I wanted one like the Trend ones that you can double up and have one each side of the workpiece when doing mortices. So with a lenght of 8mm bar from B&Q and some home made clamps made by drilling holes in a piece of 18mm Birch ply and cutting it in half (I nicked the ides from Steve M adjustable circle cutting jig) I did have some problems with handle clearance but a two cutouts solved that.
Close up of the clamp, I put a square of taped 6mm plate in the middle.
Next is one for my M12V it will look the same, and it will also fit my Makita 3612C.
