Hello,

Some hand trimmers are available with the ability to be converted to a plunge router (Von Haus, Bosch and Makita). I have the Ryobi 18volt +1 system and am disappointed to see that the 18Volt battery trimmer doesn’t have a plunge accessory available. Does anyone know if the plunge kits from the other brands would fit the Ryobi as certainly they look about the same size?

 

Thanks

i doubt any will fit. routers usually have their own design for raising and lowering the router in the base.

You would be much better off having a dedicated plunge router for the accuracy with depth stop etc. You can buy them reasonably cheap these days if you aren’t worries about a large style or certain brand.
