Can this edge guide be used with the Skil 1830 router?

The DEWALT DNP618 will not work with the Skil 1830 router. You need a guide that uses rods that are 2 3/4" or 90mm center to center.

I think relatively easily with the correct bit, also would depend on the lumber. I have the router fence attachment and also a rockler sub base which means you can use guide bushings, however the standard base won't take bushing that I know of.

I recommend having the pull cord served in to your cable. Looking at a pic of the Razor Edge, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

I used a Bosch Router with mine. I'm not sure of the model number but it works great.

No. I wouldn't recommend it for that. You probably need some sort of rotary tool with a spiral bit. This router is a precise tool used for detail work. I don't think it would take the kind of use you may have in mind.

Yes. This bit will allow you to place your router base on one face of your work piece and the bearing will trace the perpendicular face, resulting in a 45 degree "bevel" or chamfer on the corner between the two faces. The size of the chamfer can be adjusting by setting the depth of the bit on your router.

Just make sure whatever router you decide to buy can handle the 1/2" shank on the dovetail router bit that comes with the jig. I believe most Bosch routers can handle 1/2" shanks (my own can an it's a Bosch, but I forget the model number).

It would be very easy to make a new mounting plate for the support rods at the spacing needed for your router. This looks like a great edge guide that is easily customized.

only if the Router Attachment will take the standard stepped 1 3/16 guide insert (30.17mm)

I don't know if the skill 1830 router base uses. However, the Shop Fox bushings fit Porter-Cable router bases. Many manufacturers use the same size openings. Recommend you take your base plate to a brick & mortar store to see if a Porter-Cable bushing will fit your base plate.

Sorry, only tried with DeWalt and Porter Cable routers. It is a good system. Well worth the $'s.

I bought this guide specifically for my DWP611 1/4" variable speed plunge router and it works perfectly on the base that comes with the router. I love the guide - I use it mostly for inlay jobs and the fine tuning mechanism is great. I highly recommend if for the small router and see no reason why it would not work well on larger routers also.

The answer is yes I think, Becuse I use this as a straight edge to route with like a set edge on a table top router. I hope this helps?

Not sure but it's very easy to drill and adapt, didn't fit my Skil router, took about 15 minutes to drill and adapt, good quality!

Not experienced enough. My first router. I rounded edges for my 1st project without the plunge base. The accessory edge guide that works with the plunge base is nice. Best thing about the plunge base is it is easier to hold and guide straight without tilting plus if you want to start a slot in the middle of a piece or start a rounded edge somewhere in the middle of a board it'd work better. Depth adjustments are easier with the plunge base. Like before, I'm not an experienced router user.

This edge guide does NOT work with the Skil 1825, I own both. The bosch edge guide is much too big for the skil. Skil does make an edge guide for the 1825, but it is just a plastic frame with two metal rods - very basic.

Yes, quite likely will fit most routers. However, I don't recommend it - you can read my review, but the fence is terrible for alignment. If you just want to do edge routing with bearing bits and bolt it down to some surface then likely it will be fine, but if you expect to do any jointing or non-edge/bearing routing then you will be very disappointed...
