I saw this a few weeks ago. Looks ideal for small & repetitive work on site. I like the compact size, compatibility w/ various brands & portability. Thanks for putting this video together. It’s nice to get a demo from a trusted fellow maker.

The attachment method is quite innovative, and I'm sure all these features took a lot of development, but that is a lot of money for a couple of brackets and a small mdf top. My home made version has all the same functionality, will take a much larger router if required, and was put together in about three hours from workshop scraps.

Some times you have to decide what you will do yourself and what you will farm out. I gave up doing doors long ago as it's almost as cheep to buy them as to build them yourself. 95% of my work is with palm size routers today. But there are times I love to bring out my PC 890. Not sure about the router table, but I'm liking the Table Extension.

Also look into those LR32 Guide Plate adapters. They are great for adapting plunge bases to work on a LR32 guide rail, and for doing groves. My Makita and my PC 890 have the bases installed on the plunge bases permanently. Yes, I know TSO does not have PC adapters. I worked with the guy who originally came up with the idea and he 3D printed stuff for me as we tried out new ideas.

Looks ok for very basic small jobs, but I'll keep my full size table with my 2.25 HP bosch router.

If you already own a Dewalt trim router and needed a table for a garage workshop for weekend woodworking, would you rather have this or the Bosch table?

I want to love this but it looks like pros for the Bosch would be that it’s standalone, larger, better dust collection, and aluminum surface. Pros for the TSO would be smaller, easier to store.

If this has tool-less deploy, I’d probably buy it. Requiring tools for something that attaches to the MFT is pretty silly IMO - kind of misses the mark on what makes the MFT great. Especially given that this would get in the way of using the MFT for other things when mounted.

I wish I would have found your channel before I started. I have a bunch of stuff that I bought which works but man this makes life a lot easier.

I put the Festool CMS router module into my homemade Palk mft table. Fits both the OF1010 or OF 1400. Well worth giving it a try. Heaps of support from the big Palk table. I do like your little router module though as it has some advantages over the Festool module I think, mainly the ability to slide the fence back and forward easier than the Festool cms module.

I thought when you set the height on the JessEm wheels you set it off the metal hub, not the rubber wheel. I could be wrong, but that's what I do with the JessEm table saw wheels. I really like that about them. The wheels are unbelievably helpful in breaking down plywood if one doesn't have a sliding table saw. Perhaps they are different and not spring loaded like the table saw ones are. That really gives them some good downward pressure and also pulls the work towards the fence since they are angled slightly.

Never mind. I just re-watched your video. It doesn't appear that the router wheels are spring loaded... I like my JessEm table saw wheels so much, I will probably get the router wheels someday. Thanks for the video as always.

Nice product for what it is but it would never replace the functionality of the Incra table you have. But if a tiny bit of space savings in your shop is worth the trade-off…thats all that matters. Also, strange that an attachment made to affix to a festool mft won’t work with their routers?

[PGore]

Looks interesting. Do you know whether the Festool 1010 fits the predrilled holes?

[andymok]

Nice. Would buy one, except it does not have option for a router lift. I have a Makita trim router. Having to bend down and rotate the router to raise/lower is a pain. More so when older or have issues. I just received the TSO 30" parallel rip guides with extra stops and the MFT aligned guide rail support upgrade kit. Now just need to wait for the warm weather as I live in a condo and only work out on the balcony.

Looks like a great option. I have a router table. I do find myself wanting something portable when I’m doing some jobs. And I do have an MFT. Gotta love TSO. They have all the cool tools.

[johnfuentes]

will these work on the DashBoard Table…..

[LaserGarage]

Nice video Jason, looks like a cool product. I’ve been considering swapping out my large router table for something smaller. Just not using it as much as I used to.

[bwhite]

if I connect that bad boy in between my 2 MFTs, I’d have a huge infeed and outfeed table for my router!? I’M IN!

[Mike-dnju]

I wonder if this will work with the Dashboard PWS? If not, Hans? Please?

[josephnicotra]

It looks like an option could be to have a temporary mount for the incra LS fence using the accurate mft holes… I may try that

[NBGTFO]

I was very tempted to get this, but not for the price they're asking. Guess I'll keep my JessEm table around.

[SteelBladeWoodworks]

Sweet product, portable and space saving!! Thanks for sharing.

HELP! Question for you. A friend has offered to buy me any sander of my choice. 3M Or Festool? I do intend to expand and buy the smallest Festool dust extractor. I use you, Stubby Nubs & 731. You are my 3 go to guys! Excellent on the TSO Router table. I am buying the JMP From Bridge City Tools. Thank You!
