arrived on time good for power tools

As far as I can tell the item was as described by the seller but that's all I can say it's a Christmas present so I won't do it before Christmas I can't tell you say - anything else about the product other than it looks like a good quality material and arrived as advertised and for that alone I would give it a five star rating

Pros
  • tools and housewares
Cons
  • old

Easy to assemble and use

I couldn't find an edge guide in any outlet that would fit my Ryobi router so I tried this guide. Revain's two-day delivery saved the project, and today 80 feet of joint and 20 feet of tongue and groove were cut with the guide. Assembly was easy and the base plate allows any router to be attached. It comes with a center drill and bushing to ensure a correct fit. Leveling the job was also easy and the guide glides with ease. Strong and durable materials. Highly recommended.

Pros
  • Slotters
Cons
  • Not sure

Not the best design

I have several other Milescraft tools so I bought this one with confidence but I was completely disappointed. My main use was cutting dado joints at specific distances from the edge. There were no screws to attach to the base, so I used the screws from my current router base, but found the heads weren't big enough to install a new base plate. I like the idea of snapping the router into place, but the measurement was full of PITA and during use debris accumulated everywhere including the locking

Pros
  • power tools
Cons
  • unreliable
