ryobi router - whats the compatible drilling pattern?

I was hoping to get a pre-drilled router plate.

Before I knew what I was doing, I snapped up a ryobi router/table
combo a few months. I am not really happy with the table and am
building an insert for my tablesaw. Of course there are no pre-drilled
plates for the ryobi, but I was thinking there may be a compatible
hole pattern. Anyone know?

I always take the baseplate off of a router and use it as a template.

You need dowell centers to mark the holes....

Read all about it...

You don't have a drill and some bits?

Sure that is an option, but I was hoping to get a predrilled one,
since I dont have the tools to drill aluminum plating. Like the
benchdog plate. Or whatever compatible plate that is already
predrilled.

thanks though...that is my other option if I decide to just attach it
to the insert.
