Jasper Tools has been designing and manufacturing high quality router accessories since 1998. Their Circle Guide is the first true one-pass (no trial cuts) and only circle guide you will need for your plunge router. Made from virtually unbreakable polycarbonate, the Jasper Pro series guides are incredibly durable and easy to use. They are scaled in inches and are calibrated to make cutouts using a 1/4" router bit. Jasper's circle guide pivot holes are precision-drilled so that the guide holds the pin in the selected hole without falling out, even when you turn your router over. The guides also feature predrilled mounting holes and come with a dowel pin and screws for mounting to your router. Instructions are provided and include information on calibrating to other bit diameters. The Jasper Model 200 PRO guide allows you to make 256 different size circles from 2-1/4" to 18-3/16" in diameter, increasing in size in 1/16" increments. Please see photos for router compatability. Made in the USA!

Poorly designed
Good:Pins and various mounting screws provided. No need for hope and prayer that that old rusty nail will do the stick and no screwing drywall screws into your jig, potentially making your pin holes larger than they need be at the cost of accuracy. Trust me - been there! :-)No so great:Documentation says this works with a Makita rt0701cx7 but I couldn't get any combination of three mounting holes to line up. Made my own from some scrap OSB.Documentation also says it'll work with a Hitachi KM12VC. While this is true regarding the mounting holes (yay!) the jig has to be installed legend side DOWN due to the unconventional "plate" system on the Hitachi.Solutions:Makita - update your documentation or add more mounting holes.Hitachi - update your documentation or print the legend on both sides or make the jig clear so we have at least an idea of which pin hole we're using.Cutting circles - not tried yet. Will update if there are any issues.

no love for Festool...yet
Great product...but why not add holes for Festool? I went ahead and machined in myself...but it would have only taken you an extra 30 seconds.

Had a few small scratches and a chip on it ...
Had a few small scratches and a chip on it out the box so to speak. Should have been pristine! The center hole that the cutting bit passes thru, started to melt a little as the hot wood dust accumulated there while routing. Didn't expect that to happen. Had to make some rubber washers to shim up the mounting screws because they bottomed out in my 1613 Bosch Plunge route base before locking down the circle cutter.
