Positioning and centering device, system, and method comprises a pointer having a flat-surface portion and able to be chucked in a cutting-bit holder, together with a thickness gauge mounted relative to a template holder cross member having a positioning and centering hole therein, a centering line on an associated workpiece cutting table, an adjustable fence and scale combination, and a guide-bearing shaft collar, wherein the method comprises inserting the pointer into the router chuck, adjusting the template holder, and the router pinned to the template holder, and through a center hole of a template, to align the pointer with the workpiece table centering line, using the thickness gauge to determine a workpiece thickness midpoint, using the fence and scale combination to center the workpiece on the table, and using the locking collar to enable easy re-location of the guide bearing relative to the tapered template on a subsequent workpiece.

Tapered, stepped, or non-tapered router guide templates, and optionally combined template holder system, each template comprising: a base portion, a top portion, at least one of an exterior surface interconnecting the base portion and the top portion along an outer periphery of the template and an interior surface interconnecting the base portion and the top portion along an inner periphery of the template, wherein optionally one of the exterior surface and the interior surface may be continuously tapered between the base portion and the top portion, or stepped, and wherein the base portion is adapted for removable and adjustable interconnection with the template holder system.

Tapered template guided system for a router

Tapered, stepped, or non-tapered router guide templates, optionally combined template holder system, and optional tapered or non-tapered guide bearing on a readily-locatable and lockable shaft, each template comprising: a base portion, a top portion, at least one of an exterior surface interconnecting the base portion and the top portion along an outer periphery of the template and an interior surface interconnecting the base portion and the top portion along an inner periphery of the template, wherein optionally one of the exterior surface and the interior surface may be continuously tapered between the base portion and the top portion, or stepped, and wherein the base portion is adapted for removable and adjustable interconnection with the template holder system.

Template guidance system for a router

A dust and debris collection system for use with woodworking routers, including a baffle, a dust collection hood, and a brush. The baffle includes a top surface, where the top surface is configured to deflect cooling air generated by a woodworking router out and away from the woodworking router in order to allow the woodworking router adequate cooling and efficient dust collection. The dust collection hood is located adjacent to the baffle and includes a sloped wall that is aerodynamically shaped to remove dust and debris and includes a central bit hole configured to accept a bit. The brush has a series of bristles extending from the dust collection hood. The brush and its bristles contain dust and debris.
