Hi TM, I should have taken pics while I did this. I don't use a router too often. pictures show plywood surround even with surface of starboard. the fence keeps a straight line around the inside edge of the starboard for the router base to follow. I don't think it can be done free hand. work from inside/center to outside so you have a flat surface for the router to travel on.
other 2 pictures show top and bottom after. I haven't added the hinges or spring stay yet. I'm going to add a latch to keep it closed, seems like lots of these hatches are lost while on the trailer, hoping latches help keep them on board going down the road.
$20 router in 1990 has come in handy over the years.
