OF 1400 Template Guides

[JC111525]

I'm wondering if there's a 3/4" template guide for a OF 1400 router? Cannot seem to locate one and I need this for my PC dovetail jig. Jerry

Can't you do what I did and order a Festool 493566 which is a Copying Ring OF 1400 which then allows you to use any standard screw in type 'template guide' ?

The OF1400 comes with a standard U.S. guide bushing adapter.

You can use this set with the adapter that comes with the OF1400.

Or this cheaper set.....

Just for clarity, the UK versions of the OF1400 do not come with the US style guide bush adapter, we get a 30mm guide bush instead, and if we want to use US style guide bushes we need to buy an additional Copying Ring OF 1400 (493566).
