Fits the "no name" Workpro router on Amazon. Easy to use, very smooth adjustments!
This fits the Workpro Router plunge base (Amazon ID B0BTRTPZK9) by using the narrow two notches of included rods and the rods adjust very smoothly. The Micro adjust to nudge it a little way to one side or another is an amazing trait I wish more router fences had. Sadly the stamped metal fences just can't function the way a quality item like this does. This has none of the dragging or wobbling and sticking during adjustment and it is a great headache remover!Since others do not mention it, here are the specs for the narrow mounting on the rod, with the wide holes about 1/2 wider. Rod Diameter 0.312" (5/16") or 7.92mm, Distance between the two rods is 3.3" 83.82 mmOnly the plunge base of the Workpro router has the rod guide channels and locking screws so if your router has a way to mount a rod based guide.

Really worked good.
The media could not be loaded. This was my 1st time using an edge guide with a router and it worked out great. I made two passes at 1/8" each in 3/4" Melamine. The Melamine measured .770" thick, so the 3/4" bit leaves the dado narrow. I turned the micro adjuster 3 increments and ran another full depth pass. The dado increased by about .015" for a perfect fit. Nice job Dewalt.

Almost always use
When I am doing anything that isn't free form with my router - this guide is in place. It really helps keep my work consistent. It is a bit difficult the closer to the edge I want the routing to be - and the dust collection port on the bottom is a bit cumbersome meaning I have to raise the work piece or have it off the edge. But all in all I find it useful in my projects.My use is with a dewalt plunge router.

one adjustment is fantastic! I then move the dial one turn in ...
I was conflicted about buying this fence until I finally found a review that mentioned my specific router. The answered questions are all over the map with some being quite wrong. So I'm writing this to hopefully clear up confusion for others.This is a review of the DeWALT DW6913 Parallel FenceThe item arrived on time and packaged well.The reason I bought this adjustable fence is to cut mortises on a home made jig. The router registers against a guide block using an attached fence mounted on the plunge base. Prior to, all fence adjustments were eyeball and unpredictable.One must remember that this unit is specificly built for dewalt routers. Other routers will fit and possibly this review will help others understand if this will fit their router.The instructions are very basic and only refer to installing the fence to the base. They do mention the rod sizes as 8mm and 10mm. The threads on the 8mm rods are for mounting the unit to a dewalt dw610 base. The rods do not screw together. The 10mm rods are just rods without other features. The 8mm rods measure 280mm plus the threads. The 10mm rods measure 380mm. The length of the rods could allow for some added capacity of fence depth.In the box is the fence completely assembled, the two sets of rods, a dust reducer for small vac hoses and two extra wingnuts and springs.I did some measuring to understand the adjustment. It appears the threads are M6 with a convenient tpi of 1mm. So each turn of the dial moves the fence 1mm and each mark represents 0.1mm (just shy of 0.004").The total travel of the fence is limited to the locking slot in the aluminum bracket. This bracket mounts to the stamped sheet metal fence support at one position only. The total movement measures 15mm. There are some markings on the stamping both in mm and inches.The rods mount in two different locations and so give two different spreads between centers. The positions are on either side of their respective locking wingnuts. It appears the spreads were designed in sae because they measure 3.25" and 4.0".The dust collector can be removed. It appears it can only function if one were routing on edge. I guess it would give more control but would take much longer adjusting than just using a bit with a bearing.The fence pads can be moved apart to accommodate edge routing.The first pic show my jig setup. The second pic shows two 1/4" end mill touch offs. The lower mark was purposely off center. I ruler measured it and found it to be a bit over 5/32" off center so I moved the fence just over 4 turns (the way I calc'd it was 4.17 turns). I was pleasantly surprised to see it moved about 4.2mm and I hit the center line as close as I need it to be for making my mortises. One measurement, one adjustment is fantastic!I then move the dial one turn in the opposite direction without regard to backlash. The third pic shows this new touch off and the one that's on center. It's really hard to tell but I don't think backlash would be an issue at all. Having said that, it's always best to adjust in the same direction.All-in-all, I think this fence will do just what I want it to. It fits my Makita RT0701C and, knowing how much the fence moves per dial rev, and more importantly, that it actually moves that much, making adjustments on will be much easier and more accurate.If the rods and spreads are compatible with your base, I recommend this fence for you.

Works with makita compact trim router
Bought this cause the makita version was more than double I can’t for the life of me figure out how to get dust collection to work but otherwise everything works really well. The device itself feels super solid and accurate. Easy to learn.
