Adjustable Edge guide for Bosch POF 1400?

[Dbank]

Any suggestions for an adjustable edge guide for Bosch POF 1400 router, the base takes 8mm bars that are 85mm apart. I wondered if one from another make might fit?

What's wrong with a bosch guide?

hard to adjust small amounts. I would like something like the "Bosch Deluxe router guide" but it uses 10mm bars so won't fit a POF 1400 as it uses 8mm bars.

Actually, if you look closely you'll see that is uses either 10mm bars (for the big routers such as the GOF2000) or it uses 8mm bars (for the smaller routers) by moving the thumb screws to the adhacent threaded holes. The 8mm holes for the rods are inboard of the 10mm ones and can be clearly seen. What I don't know is what the rod centres are

Thanks, I hadn't spotted the the "Bosch Deluxe router guide" also takes 8mm bars, I'll try to find out what the spacing is.

If it helps I know that the following routers share thd same bar spacing and 8mm bar size:

deWalt DW613, DW615, DW620 DW622, DW622
Elu MOF69, MOF96, OF97
Bosch GOF900, GOF1300
Makita 1100-series (e.g RPF1110C, etc)
Black & Decker SR100
Perles OF808
Trend T5

As the 10mm rods are on 100mm centres, the 8mm ones must be somewhere nearer to 80

Many thanks, that's really helpful, I should be able to find something that works.

Just found a reference for the rod centres of the Trend T5 fence (actually manufactured by Perles, who also make the near identical OF808 and deWalt's DW615) - 84mm (source: West Country Machinery 4 Wood, woodworking machinery dealers)
