EDS - PANTOROUTER CERTIFICATION CLASS 25-8

Instructor: Ken Fairfax

Class Assistant: Pat Shuff

Prerequisites: Core Tool Certification and Router Certification

Cost: $90

The PantoRouter™ is an innovative tool that utilizes a router motor to create highly precise joinery, including mortise and tenon joints, dovetail joints, box joints, and other specialized joint types.

In this class, students will cover both safety as well as the basics of using the PantoRouter to create accurate, reproducible mortise and tenon joints.  During the class, the 4 students will jointly create a table base using mortise and tenon joinery while learning how to set up, calibrate, and safely operate the PantoRouter. While completing this class, each student will practice setting up the machine for a cut, aligning work pieces, and safely cutting multiple joints.

After successfully completing the class, students will be certified to use the PantoRouter during Open Shop periods. While the class uses mortise and tenon joints for teaching purposes, PantoRouter users can consult the manual as well as the extensive on-line video library at PantoRouter.com to learn how to apply their skills to other joints, including dovetail and box joints.

Please bring your own PPE - eye, ear and lung protection.
