Hello,  What is the minimum circle width i can route with the MFS 400?  I couldn't find this information on the Festool website or manual.  I want to build some speakers with my new OF1400EQ and need to be able to route holes for 2 and 3 inch speakers.  I know there are other options for just doing circles, but I love the idea of buying the MFS 400 and being able to do a lot of other things with it.  I've read about modifying the Jasper jig and using the micro fence stuff.  I don't really trust my skill yet to make my own jig.  Any other recommendations for Circle routing that maybe I haven't mentioned?  This is my first router and have zero experience with routers, so it's going to be a fun learning experience. 

Also if anyone has a good reference for general router use I would love to start learning. 

Thanks,

Taylor
 
With the rig completely collapsed, the center of the bit is 37mm from the center of the pivot.

Knowing that, it depends on what size your bit is...

If you have a 6mm diameter bit, the smallest hole is 80mm diameter and the smallest disk is 68mm diameter.
