I have a friend who is wanting to utilize the router to cut some basic shapes on the lathe. Where can we look to find a set of plans for the jig to attach to the lathe?

John Lucas did a short article on routing flutes on a piece. You should be able to find it on www.woodcentral.com.

I wrote an article for Woodturning Design but would have to look it up to see what issue has the router sled. I need to put that on our club website so it's easier for people to see. I've built several. Most are simply a bar that fits my tool rest banjo with a wooden plate on top for the router to ride on.
I did build one that was a box that sat on the lathe and has all these adjustments that you can lock the box in lots of positions. That was overkill and it just sits there.

The Winter 2009 issue was sitting right next to the computer. It has an article by John Lucas on "Routed Inlay Ornament", pages 32-35.
