In all my varied experience, using a router template guide is something i've actually never had to do. From what I've seen, you can get, for example, a template guide with an 11 mm ID (Festool's has a 13.8 mm OD), and use an 11mm straight bit, but then your template has to be sized appropriately to make up the offset.
But what if I want to make my actual first piece and then copy it instead of using a separate template to make all my pieces? Can that be done with a guide template? Or would I need to use a flush trim bit? If the latter is the case, is that advisable for a decent-sized cutout in 1/2 ply?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
