    Default tra001 depth stop turret

    Hi

    I've just gone to use this feature on the router and it won't tighten onto the depth stop tube

    It would appear there's a small spacer/component missing that sits against the tube

    I have to make something that will do the job, can anybody offer details/measurements to get me started?

    I'm thinking it could be made of hard plastic but I could be wrong
    any ideas appreciated

    cheers

    I'm away from my workshop till Xmas; if no-one has been able to help you before then send me a PM and I'll duck out to the shed and measure it up. I have a pair of the early TRA's and a JOF.

    From memory I think it actually a piece of brass about 5mm diameter and 4mm long; but it was a log time ago....

    thanks

    I've just found a brass bolt and made a spacer that works well

    I've gotta wonder why they didn't make the assy. all in one piece

    cheers
