I don't have that one, but I have a mirco adjust for my Bosch, and they are AWESOME. It's indicated in 1/256, which is about 0.004", I really love it. I rout my mortises, and it's perfect for aligning that very specifically. I think the bosch one is 35$ or so online (amazon), there is one for porter-cable, seen it at Rockler, 50$ I think there, might be cheaper online dunno.Keith Z. Leonard

If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

Yah I noticed. I saw a review on a mag which it got glowing reviews for because it's accurate to 1000th of an inch and great for making extremely tight dados. So I looked 'er up. But then I saw the price
I have a Dewalt router. Anyone use this one? Comments?

That's essentially a DeWalt version of the Bosch guide that Keith mentions. I also have the Bosch guide for my 1617, but don't have the one for my DeWalts. BTW, the Bosch guide will double as a trammel arm for circles up to about 18" diameter (I don't know whether the DeWalt guide will, too, but it's a handy feature).
Anyway ... about a year and a half ago, when I was ordering one of router guru Pat Warner's subbases for my DW621, I asked him whether he offered an edge guide that would fit same. His reply: "Amazing you ask for an edge guide, many others have too and I'm not clear why the 621 DW edge guide is not more popular."
That sounds like a pretty good endorsement, to me.LarryComment

I have it and the circle jig and have had it three years. It works as advertised and I've never been disappointed.
I use it for mostly for cutting grooves for tongue & groove cabinets I build. It lets me place grooves precisely, anywhere I need them and I can get a snug fit on the second pass every time. I don't think I've used my dado blade since I bought it.
There's no tear out when using a spiral bit vs a groove cutting bit in the router table.Chr's

I have a similar one from PC that came with my router. I mostly use it for shelf dadoes, and it definitely does the job.
