    Accurate Guide?

    Anyone know if this company is still around? I used to have a bookmark to their site, but it's no longer available.
    Thanks.

    I saw this post earlier today, but I couldn't remember the sight until I came home and looked it up. It is www.accuratewoodtools.com.

    Hope this helps!

    Web site link does not work.

    Larry I tried the link and the web site does not come up. I also tried my link in my favorites and it did not work either. Does anyone know if it is just a web site problem, or if they went out of business?

    Accurate Woodworking Tools is closed

    I tracked down Accurate Woodworking Tools and have learned they sold their patents for the Accurate Guide to a router manufacturer. I don't know which one. The company continues as a machine shop which they always were. They stopped manufacturing the guide sometime late in 2006.

    Accurate Guide

    Sorry Guys,

    I had had e-mail communication with John LaPrest of Accurate tools on Dec. 2, 2006. He said he would sell me a guide for my router direct at that time. Unfortunately I did not take advantage of his offer then, as I was going to wait until after the first of the year.(Christmas You Know) Looks like I waited too long. He didn't mentioned that they were selling their patent. Does anyone know which company bought it?

    I can't help you where to buy one, but a WW friend of mine recenty made one using the pictures off the web. The thing works like a champ. The only problem he's having is finding a place that will anodize it for less than $100.00 Without the anodized coating it leaves black streaks all over his stock.

    Screws are kinda like knots, if you can't use the right one, use lots of 'em.
    The greatest tragedy in life is the gruesome murder of a beautiful theory by a brutal gang of facts.

    A coat of clear laquer should work well.
