Learning about router accessories

I've been an amateur woodworker for awhile since I had limited tools.
Now, I have a decent shop set up for minor project or mostly home
projects. Though I have used a router on many occassions, I finally
purchased my own router with a separate plunge base. Along with the kit
were many different size bushings as well as a centering tool. I would
like to learn more about using these tools and how they can benefit my
routering experience. Does anyone know of a website which provides
routing basics with theses accessories or would anyone be willing to
explain how to use them?

Much appreciated.

Pat's is definitely the first website that came to mind for me also.
In addition, I'd recommend whatever books you can get your hands on -
routing specifically and woodworking in general. An Amazon search will
turn up plenty of material, or

Have fun!
