This is related to the Router Insert Plate thread but I thought I'd post separately to go for a wider audience.
Simply, what are the levelling adjusting screws called and where can you get them.
I know they are threaded inserts with enclosed Allen screws but does anyone know where I can get 8 of them please?
Thanks.
 
I think they're also known as set screws. I bought a pack of assorted sizes from e-bay. Just a couple of quid if I remember rightly. I embedded a coin type battery beneath each one to give them something solid to bear down on.
 
Thanks all.
No problem in finding the set / grub screws but I'm struggling to find some inserts for them to go in. Difficulty is that I only need a depth of about 6mm (as per the Rutlands insert plate) so any suggestions would be welcome.
 
Why do you need inserts? Just tap the plate with the correct thread for the screws
If I had a brain I would be dangerous! So busy trying to duplicate the plate I have that the chuffing obvious didn't occur to me.
Thanks.
