When I do edge work on the 2200, I usually use the the edge guide. One other advantage (which I also do on the 1400) is that you can actually use the rail attachment as a stabilizer when it's attached to the rods with the normal base and the edge guide (left hand on rail attachment, right hand on edge guide knob) Is there a reason why you went rail on this?
Will have to check the fit of my guide bushing inserts -- i don't recall any play.

I tried using my 2200 awhile back to trim a chipboard worktop end, using the rail attachment and special base. I found there was a lot of wobble, due to the weight of the 2200 hanging over the edge. I gave up in the end & did it another way.
Has anyone else noticed this ?
Also my guide bushes are a loose fit, when fitted you can wiggle them around a tenth of a millimetre side to side. There's no play in my 1400 ones.

Anyone ??
As Peter says above.
I'm not edging I'm trimming a straight edge onto a worktop end. Using the rail , but I've found with the router over the edge and no support that side it wobbles. Not easy to cut a clean square edge.
Also the thing about the guide bushes, has anyone else got a loose fitting one ?
I noticed it when I got the 2200 last year and I might have asked before on here. At the time I just stuck paper around it to wedge it in place. Since then I've looked at my of 1400 and there's no play whatsoever on that one.

Hi Chippy,
I just had a look at my OF2200 and my OF1400 and there is a small amount of play in the guide bushes on the OF2200. I have the OF2200 Accessory Set, so I checked all the various size guide bushes and they all have the same amount of play.
The way the guide bush fits to the OF1400 is slightly different as it locks in place with sprung clips, whereas the OF2200 guide bush is just held in place on 4 locating pegs when the clip-on base runner is re-attached.
Having said that, I have'nt noticed any issues with inaccurate cuts when I've been using the Of2200, but I will double check the next time I use it in a couple of weeks time.
