EDS - PANTOROUTER CERTIFICATION CLASS 26-10

Instructor: Pat Shuff
Class Assistant: TBD

Prerequisites: Core Tool Certification and Router Certification

Cost: $90

The PantoRouter™ is an innovative tool that utilizes a router 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 dovetails. During the class the 4 students will jointly create a drawer/box using dovetail 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 dovetail joints for teaching purposes, PantoRouter™ users can consult the manual as well as the extensive online library at PantoRouter.com to learn how to apply their skills to other joints, including mortise/tenon and box joints. 

Students should bring personal protective equipment, including safety goggles and hearing protection. For those with prior pantorouter certification wishing to learn how to perform dovetail joints, contact the instructor to audit this class.
