Has anyone done much free hand routing like the pic on the left? I have wanted to do some but I have been kind of scared to give it a go. Most pics of router plates I've seen have a hard point on the plate that you first butt the work up against before you bring the work into the spinning bit. I am missing that screw in thing for my plate and haven't gotten around to finding a replacement for it yet but based on this pic it doesnt seem like it's really needed?
