 Wrong template guide for my routerAug 27, 2009
By Gary Welch
I purchased one of these template sets for possible future use but found that the included template guide doesn't fit my Skil 1810 router. The correct parts (SKIL 91905 Router Guide Bushing Set (4 pc) and Skil RAS140 Template Guide Adaptor) are available on the Amazon site but I'll probably delay buying them for now.
To the reviewer who complained that it's nearly impossible to lower the spinning router bit through the templates without destroying them, I say READ THE DIRECTIONS. You're supposed to lower the router guide through the template BEFORE you turn it on.
 are you kidding me?Sep 06, 2011

I read some lousy reviews about this template set, but I figured for $4 on sale it would be worth a try. Wrong!!! It was a waste of money. This must be the world's worst template set. Basically unuseable. When assembled correctly, the bushing runs into the rim on the side of the jig before it hits the lettering guide of the template on the outside edge. I made my own router setup to get around that problem, but still, the design is lousy and the letters don't look good. Buy some nice carving gouges instead.

 Not very usable, even for the low priceMar 12, 2009
By Simply Joe
I didn't expect a high end tool for this price, but this is practically useless. Trying to lower a spinning router bit through the very small letter template without chewing up the side of the template is nearly impossible, and one slip and your letter template is chewed up, as are 2/3's of the ones I tried to use. I should have put the 7 bucks towards one of the better sign template sets.

pretty chincyMar 25, 2009
By Edward J. Joy
"louietrips"
receiver product as promised. The item looks very cheaply made. It appears that after on use that it will be ready for the trash bin. I still have not used it. I'm waiting for the opportunity when the need arises to carve out some message in wood. Until then I can only comment on the appearance and quality of workmanship. Neither of which is very impressive.
