Used pin routers a lot in my factory days and have only seen a few very limited articles in FWW years ago. You make your own templates. I have a number of trade school type books and there is little info on pin routers. Most of the fine points are handed down between co-workers or just jumping in and doing it. A lot of the wood machines in industry have no guidebooks. Table saws and such have a lot as they are part of the hobby woodworkers world. Do a google search!

What size pin router do you use or type of work? ~Z~
It's one I just got from MLCS, has about 8" throat. Pin on top, bit underneath, table mounted. My first plan is to dish out a bunch of little holes for rings, instead of the usual egg crate drawer (jewerly box).
