DREMEL PIN ROUTER

[morsa]

This project is based on commercial devices for the router known as "Daisy pin router". The purpose of these devices is to consistently reproduce letters, shapes or figures on a piece of wood (work) using a template. To this end, the template is provisionally attached to the workpiece, and by guiding the contour of the template against the pin (placed on top) will result in an identical carved at work piece with the bit of the router (placed at bottom).

Instead of the router, a Dremel mounted on an accessory router table fixed to a base is used. The "pin" is a punch of the same caliber of Dremel bit (3/16 ") which is placed on an arm fixed to the base. In order to have a hands-free device, I use a footswitch that controls the on-off.
