Need router collet adapter and safety switch

[rick carpenter]

I'm looking for a 1/4 inch collet adapter for a ~1993 Craftsman Industrial Plunge Router. The Sears site said the part is no longer available and they didn't have any info on authorized substitutions, but I think a 1/2 x 1/4 adapter is a universal fit.

Next, I need a safety switch. What/where is a good universal switch for less than $20? If it's not already a paddle switch, I need one easily adaptable.

Thanks

Thanks, but they didn't have any inventory for the router nor do they or Sears have the original missing switch. I bought the router and table from a friend, and it was missing these two pieces. Highland Hardware among others has the collet adapter, so that's not a problem. I just need a switch for a decent price. Thank again.

Grizzly likely has a switch that will work for you. I just put "switch" into their search engine. Lots of variety to choose from.
