OF 1400 accessories

[Caymanguy]

Anyone ever use the Plexiglas template?  Useful?  Useless?  Any thoughts?  Bought the 1400 a couple of months ago and absolutely love it, now looking to add a few accessories...

First, welcome to the FOG. I'm glad you found what I wrote about the plexiglas template useful. I used mind about a week ago for a mortised lock set. I used to use a drill bit and chisel and it was a bit of a struggle, now it's easy with the plexiglas template. For routing medium to large mortises this accessory is ideal. Here's some info on the template for those that haven't yet seen it, my review of the plexiglas template, Using the plexiglas template to make the joinery on an interior door, Routing the male portion of sliding dovetails. Festool used to sell this accessory as the OF-FH routing aid so trying searching under that name if you'd like to try to find more info.
