UJK OTORO Compact Palm Router Table

The UJK OTORO Compact Palm Router Table is a unique and ingenious piece of equipment. It is perfect for model makers, dolls house builders and any craftsperson wishing to make smaller sized, precision components.

It is designed to be used with a palm router, either the Bosch GKF 600, Makita RT0700, RT0702 or DeWALT D26204 and DCW604 router (not suitable for Makita DRT50 cordless trimmer). The Bosch and DeWALT fit directly, the Makita uses an adaptor sleeve as supplied. Install the router, connect the dust extractor port and you are ready for business. You can clamp the table to a bench top or work table up to 60mm thick, allowing you to use it wherever is convenient. The table has both coarse and fine feed adjustments for exact height modification of the cutter.

Three modes of operation are possible with this router table: preparing an edge, planing the board to width and moulding.
Edge preparation: the Rear Planing Fence consists of 2 sections, a fixed outfeed and an adjustable infeed. The adjustment uses a ‘folding wedge’ arrangement, where one slides against the other controlling the depth of cut. Very fine control and accuracy come from the 10:1 scale. Moving and locking the leading wedge 1mm produces a cutting depth of only 0.1mm. A featherboard is included to keep the timber securely against the fence.

Width planing: the Rear Planing Fence is replaced by the Rear Featherboard Fence. The Front Fence, complete with a similar folding wedge adjustment, is used to set the planing width of the board. Although looking somewhat unconventional, this method will produce very precise thicknesses. The maximum board width that will fit between the featherboards is 130mm. By using double-sided tape and sticking a workpiece onto a carrier, you can prepare very thin material.

Moulding: the Compact Router Table performs in much the same way as a conventional router table. In this case, the result is a small and exact profile. The table comes with a 12mm and 24mm insert (the 24mm is stored under the table) and with the insert removed a 40mm aperture is available to accommodate different sized cutters. When not in use the table can be stored under a bench or in a small cupboard.
Please note, the fine height adjustment system cannot be used with a DeWalt body. See page 8 of the instruction manual below.
