Stock trim routers are not suited for binding channeling

This is very important to understand if you want a professional looking binding job

I have a pretty steady hand but kept tilting that setup too so I modified it (like in the picture) to use with a tower unit. Now I can just shove it in and turn.

Yikes. I thought those would be smaller. First time using photobucket. Any suggestions to change image size?

The pic size is OK

Why that is great! Good for you -- and you still have custom dimensioning with a simple 1/4" bit and save all that $$$ not having to buy bearings. I so happen to have a vertical gadget that works similar but is not actually a tower -- an ah hah! momment for me. Coming -- fairly soon.

While I have the highest respect for the ingenuity and creativity shown here, I do however, have to rain on the parade a little. I cannot endorse or recommend such a conversion since that KMG product is not being used per instructions and has been modified to the extent that all our (KMG) design tests are no longer relevant or valid.
