Ergonomic clamp lever for Makita 195563-0 plunge router base
The clamp lever on the Makita 195563-0 plunge router base is difficult and uncomfortable to operate. This is the router base for Makita's RT0700 trimmer router.
I myself could not operate the lever to lock/unlock without releasing the grip which makes it tricky and unsafe whilst the router is in operation. My design can be operated whilst keeping your grip firmly on the handle and requires less force.
It's an easy replacement and requires no mods to your router base.
I printed in ASA with wall thickness 2mm and infill 60%. Other materials will work too. No supports needed. Punch through the hole for the screw after printing.
Tip: If you want a perfect Makita colour match try filament from Devil Design in Ocean Blue. (Not the colour of my print).
