Ridgid (R2400/R2401/R24012/R860443B/R860444B) Palm/Trim Router Base Plate - Two Handle

Get the most from your Ridgid R2400, R2401, R24012, R860443B or R860444B trim router (compact router) with this precision laser cut 3/8" thick acrylic two-handle router base plate. 

No more fiddling with universal base plates that have more holes than Swiss cheese. This base plate features pre-drilled countersunk mounting holes specific to your router to make lining it up and attaching it a breeze. You also don't have to worry about sawdust and debris getting caught in the extra holes that are often found in universal base plates. The router base features a 1 3/8" diameter stepped-hole that is 100% compatible with "porter cable style" (P-C) router bushings to give you the greatest capability.

Most compact trim routers come with small OEM base plates that tilt or tip while in use due to their small footprint. If you are attempting to do precise work like following a stencil or pocketing, a trim router requires you to grip the entire body of it with your hand, which is both challenging and unergonomic. That's why we developed the dual handle, 9.25x6" compact palm router base. The ~4" tall phenolic handles provide a ridged, ergonomic and comfortable grip for two handed control. In addition, the thick, clear base plate provides unparalleled visibility so you can see your workpiece, stencil or template while you are moving your router around. 

In addition to sign making and free-hand wood carving use, this router base plate is also perfect for pocketing large sections of tray, bowl and dish templates. The wide profile of the base ensures your trim router stays level even with pocketing large tray openings because the base is (usually) always going to be riding on top of the surface of the tray or dish template, unlike the small OEM router base included with your compact router.

Unlock even more potential from your router by turning it into a compact router table! Our 9.25x6x0.375" dual-handle router base can drop right into the Crafted Elements Swappable Palm/Trim Router Table Plate (sold separately). Use this router table plate on your workbench or build a base for it to have an instant "hands free" router table.
