In your sketch use Offset to create your slot. In the attached model I extruded your material to 15mm and created a slot with some example cut paths. Hope this helps.

Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for. I have modified my original file using Offset in order to obtain the same results!

 

I have another question; I now want to add a line/cut the width of my bit (6.35mm) from the smaller circle to the corner of the entire design. This would let me thread a screw from 1 side of the dust shoe to the other and tighten the dust shoe onto the router. Would the best approach for accomplishing this be to use a rectangle trace on an angle and then trim?
