Abstract

The mounting plate includes an upper panel having an aperture for receipt of the cutting implement of a power tool such as a bit or a saw. The panel is adapted to be received in the opening for an insert formed in the work bench where its upper surface is flush with the working surface of the bench. A sub-panel is attached to the lower surface of the upper panel and has a number of slots for receipt of screws for inter-connecting the sub-panel and the mounting ring or base of the power tool. The screws do not extend to the upper surface of the upper panel where they would interfere with the operation of the power tool. The mounting plate has one or more anchor brackets for interconnecting the sub-panel to the upper panel so that the sub-panel does not rotate relative to the upper panel. The mounting plate may be connected to the base of a power tool having a wide variation of hole patterns.
