    I purchased this kit on Amazon Canada for a very reasonable price of ~ $55.00 CAD. I adapted it to my Bosh Mr23EVS plunge base router by adding 2 extra holes in the base plate. I made a few experimental bowls and discovered that the very small wood screw that holds the router in place was getting loose as the device was rotating and did not produce accurate circles. I solved the problem by drilling a 4mm hole in the work and using a bolt type screw of 15mm length which gave me a more secure fit and accurate circles. If Milescraft could develop a better way to secure the device other than a 1/2 " wood screw, this jig would be the best router tool on the market.

      Wow great bargain, agree with the pivot screw it’s rubbish, sounds like you got it sorted 👍🏻

    Would be nice if the center pivot would lock so you don’t need to hold it down

      Yeah I agree, definitely worried it would jump out

    At 9:52 you place the wrong end into the base. The instructions say to put the end with the lowest number in there.

      Thanks for that, I didn’t realise at the time

      I watched the manufacturers video again. Still don't get the inside and outside diameter thing. I guess you use the inside diameter for making a hole that size and the outside diameter for making a circle piece if wood that size??@@Homeonthetools
