Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an online file download?
No. This is a physical piece of heavy-duty American steel tool hardware that is boxed and shipped directly to your shop. If you run your own laser/plasma table and want to cut your own guide plate, we sell the digital file variant separately in our DXF collection.
What is the purpose of the built-in offset?
Standard layout dimensions leave zero clearance for active router tooling. Our integrated .125-inch offset expansion ensures your routing bits track perfectly along the template line while generating a final product opening that sits snug with factory tool locks.

What is Proposition 65?
Proposition 65 (officially known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986) is a California law that requires businesses to provide a warning to California consumers if their products contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
These warnings are required even if the chemical is present in incredibly low amounts that may not pose any significant risk to your health.
