I hesitated to buy this jig due to another review but ended up buying it anyway. I saw the mounting area he was talking about and it's no thinner then the original base plate but with all the extra weight hanging from the side it could stand to be a little thicker. I had no problems connecting my Dewalt router to the jig and the accuracy of the jig is great. For what this jig cost buy it!

Accurate repeatable cuts are the name of the game when using this tool. You cannot find something this precise and easy to use for the money. Sure there are other jigs that are this accurate but they cost 3x or more. The flexibility of using 3/8" and 1/2" bits to get to a 1/8" resolution is perfect for most tasks. I plan on using this badboy a lot!

I tried to mount my router on this jig for the first time and the plastic cracked. The places where the screws are attached only have 1/3 of the thickness. This is too weak! If I loosen the screws a bit, the router would not stay at a fixed position. This jig would work well if the material is metal or the mouting area is made stronger. I've wasted $35 for this piece of junk! I could have made my own jig.
