Sorry, I have not tried this application, but it looks like it could be adapted.

I don't think so! Only goes up and down, u would have to move the board since dremel tool is fixed to unit, it is meant as drill not a router. Hope this helps! I only use it to place small holes in items.

it's questionable. I personally think you are better off with a bigger router. If you are a do it yourselfer you will end up using a router more than you think. I only got the plunge router attachment for a Styrofoam project I had

Yes and no. The Dremel is a more versatile tool than the Dewalt cordless router. While the Dewalt is more of a heavy duty tool.

Bit works fine for me....I would suspect too deep a cut rather than the motor. Try several shallow cuts if you haven't tried this already.Note that I used a Porter Cable model 6912, which is 1 3/4 hp, same as the router power you used.Of course if the router vibrated before it touched wood then you have a balance problem. Unlikely.

Yes the bases for both the trim router and the plunge router are able to utilize standard Porter Cable guide bushings. If you purchase the accessory D shaped base it does not accept bushings.

I have my old table saw mounted on a Grizzly base with wheels, and find it to not only NOT be a problem, but the router table/attachment works quite well.I am using an OLD Black and Decker router bought in the late 70s for which there was no mounting plate available.So, I drilled my own holes and then bought a new router for those times I want a hand held machine.

I've used the plunge router to make recesses for door handles on sliding doors and this would work very well for mortising out door hinges. It's all about the depth that you set the plunger at. I did one practice mortise before trying it on my expensive doors and it was really like cutting through butter. Any of the router bits should work. I'm currently using the Dremel 650 1/8 Staight Routing Bit, because that was recommended to me. I'm so pleased with this plunge router attachment. Now I need to find some other projects to work on.

Your 300 should screw into this. I had the same problem and when I called Dremel they told me that it screws into the router table. Try to screw the top of the 300 into the bottom of the router table.

In my opinion no. With this thick of a bit you would likely burn out your dremel motor and it may not drill perfectly straight.

yes i use it in mine, kreg makes a pre-drilled router insert for this router, I tried drilling mine the first time but had issues just installed the predrilled and it took 5 minutes and everything is perfectly aligned

I have not had a reason to try these yet. When I got them I just put them away for future use and really did not know much more about them than the picture I saw, like you. Good or bad I was just collecting all of the Dremel router bits that Dremel made for future use trusting in Dremel products. So I am sorry, I cannot honestly answer your question. I still have them packed away in my shed, buried amoung many other tools.

i would never advise it. First off the Dremel can not receive a 1/2 inch router bit and anything less would cause extreme vibration due to a lack of rpm's. Hand held routers need a platform to rest on top of the piece you are working so you can plunge into the wood.

We use a Dw618 Dewalt plunge router with it and it works great. A plunge router makes pinpointing your starting place a lot easier than a fixed base.

It will not work. I am not aware of any bases that are made for that trim router. I would suggest getting another router with more power. Your router is only designed for flush trimming basic profiling. It is not designed for plunge routing, the frame of your router only has attaching points on one side.
