Appendix B: Inlay and Template Routing Using the
Festool Metric Guide Bushing and Ring Set
To cut matching female recesses and male inlays using a female template, select the
offset desired and then use the lettered pair of the guide bushing and supplied rings
shown. For example, if you want a 15.3mm offset from the edge of your template to the
edge of the inlay select a 4mm bit and use the ring marked 4 to cut the male inlay and
the 26.6mm ring marked 8 to cut the female recess. You can use any lettered pair with
the router bit and guide rings shown to produce the offset indicated.
