Product Description
72313 Offset Router Base – Stop Fighting Tippy Routers on Edge Work
Ever had your compact router tip or wobble when working narrow edges, curved surfaces, or template work? The POWERTEC 72313 Offset Router Base transforms your DeWalt DWP611 or DCW600B into a stable, confidence-inspiring precision tool with a 6" x 9" footprint that eliminates tipping and wandering. Crafted from durable 5/16" clear acrylic with an ergonomic single-grip handle, this offset base plate expands your router's contact area while providing crystal-clear visibility of your workpiece—letting you see exactly where you're cutting while maintaining rock-solid control on narrow stock, curved edges, and intricate template work.
Precision-engineered specifically for DeWalt's popular DWP611 and DCW600B compact routers (fixed base only), this sub base installs in minutes with included mounting hardware and transforms frustrating edge routing into confident, accurate operations. The offset design positions the router motor toward the back, extending the base forward for maximum stability when working table edges, cabinet doors, shelving, and any application where the standard small base creates balance issues. Compatible with Porter-Cable style guide bushings for template work, dovetail jigs, inlay routing, and pattern following. Perfect for furniture makers, cabinet builders, trim carpenters, and woodworkers who demand professional results without the constant worry of router tipping ruining expensive workpieces.
