Router Dust Extraction Hood2008-08-12
Had to hollow out some wood plates and the Dust Extraction Hood worked great. Only problem is the two holes that are in the router base for the edge jig allow some dust to be blown out instead of into the vacumm hose. Small problem that was fixed with a couple of foam ear plugs.

Perfect fit. High durability construction. Makes a tremendous reduction in the amount of dust during routing operations.
Collects the dust2007-03-30
I am giving 4 stars instead of 5 because some dust does escape. It is about what you would expect. In my opinion it is removing about 90% of the dust. I will try with another vacuum system that has more CFM to see if this helps.
May not fit your Bosch router2006-03-03
I bought the Bosch 1617EVSPK router kit last December and this dust extraction kit last week. BEWARE that if your Bosch router is fairly new and has a fine adjustment shaft that goes into the base of the fixed base (model RA1161 I think), the side dust extraction hood in this kit will NOT fit. Bosch recently redesigned the fixed router base and is aware of the problem with fitting their existing dust hood on this base. They say they will release a modified dust extractor hood kit "in a few months". I cannot comment on the performance of the other hood as I'm selling my kit to my brother-in-law and waiting on the redesigned hoods to be released. Check your fixed router base for an extended shaft before purchasing this kit.
Bosch Dust Hoods2005-10-29
In addition to the Bosch router table, I bought the Bosch router kit with plunge and fixed bases, the dust collection kit, and the fixed base which is made specifically for attaching to the router table.

Routers spew a lot of shavings and dust, so capturing the mess at the source saves lots of time cleaning up. Although the router table has a built-in dust collection hood, it only captures the dust that spews out above the surface of the table. Since one of the Bosch router accessory dust hoods attaches to the fixed base under the table, I thought it would be great to attach it, thus collecting dust from both above and below the table surface. Alas, I couldn't accomplish this because the table stand obstructs attaching the accessory hood when that base is attached to the table.

So far, neither Bosch nor any other manufacturer has devised a simple tool-less quick change collet for inserting and removing router bits. I look forward to that day.
