    Question Makita 3620 Router bits &bobs & thingamajigs. Very new woodworker, please be kind

    I've set up a small woodworking area in my shed and have been playing around with this router. It was given to me and I don't think it's all there. Should there be some guide things for you to set up before routing? I'm just doing simple lap joints and some other kind of indented routing I have no idea what to call it. I'm making Tri Looms which are a simple but very effective form of weaving shawls.
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks

    You should take a photo of your router and any attachments so we can see what you already have.
    There should be
    - two spanners to tighten the collet when you install a router bit
    - a fence to enable you to run the router along the edge of a board
    - a round template guide ( not sure if that is standard or not )
    That is assuming the router is complete already as in main body, handles base etc
    Genuine Spare Parts for ALL the biggest brands from Makita, Ryobi, Hitachi, and more Makita 3620 Spare Parts shows you the exploded diagram and I'm sure a little more googling would find the accessories that can be used with it.

    I have the same router. What Stewie said plus a 1/4" collet, a larger collet (I think 3/8" - will measure tomorrow), a sharpening jig, a hex tube spanner for blade bolts, a blade alignment block. The template guide came with mine.
    I've had mine for over 15 years so if your is newer maybe things have changed?
