Brass Router Bushing Set - keeping it in tight
got a set of these:
and wonder how to keep it on tight.
i was using the 11mm bush attached to a universal router base and found the d@mn thing kept unscrewing itself from the vibration of the router.
i could really do it up tight without stilsons and a firm grip on its snout with multigrips. if i did it that way the bush would surely distort
any ideas on keeping it on tight? apart from sticking it down with silicon?ray c
dunno what's more fun, buyin' the tools or usin' em'

Router Guide Bushes
Ray
I don't know the answer to your question but am interested in which universal mounting plate you are using. I purchased a Trend universal mounting plate and have used Trend guide bushes which attach to the plate with two countersunk head screws.
Regard
Trevor

Ray just use a tiny bit of the white plummmers tape. I must admit I use those guides as well and I think they are awesome

Teflon tape. Don't know the answer to the bush problem, just wanted to let you guys know what that tape is called...
Is it wrong to be in love with a sawbench?
