I'm considering buying an aluminum plate for my new router table. I can get one pre-drilled for Porter-Cable or other routers. Does anyone know if the new Ridgid router base hole pattern matches the Porter-Cable holes (or any other brand)?

Thanks!

Jim,
I'd buy the blank router insert and drill it myself to be sure.

Not trying to be a smart *** but did you pose this question to whomever is selling the plate? the Ridgid router is pretty new and maybe their advertising hasn't been updated.

If they can't, what Phil said.

Yes, the Ridgid router has the same hole pattern as the PC 690, but the Ridgid base is a larger diameter by approx. 7/32".

Sorry it took so long to check and welcome to the forum.

Ditto, welcome.
If RIDGID made the base to the Porter-Cable specs, that's pure genius! The 690 has many many accessories that fit the thing.
