Dremel 231 Shaper/Router Table

Editorial Review:

Convert your corded rotary tool into a light-duty, bench-mounted precision wood shaper with the Dremel 231 Shaper/Router Table. With a smooth table surface, it performs slotting, edge trimming, grooving and sanding of conventional or irregular shapes. Also features easy to grip plastic knobs that include a screwdriver slot for easier tool assembly and depth adjustment.

We will admit that we think these rotary tools are some of the coolest things around; you can do so many things with them. But once we saw this attachment, we were blown away. If you don't have the money or the space (or the inclination) to set up a whole router table assembly in your home or shop, but you still want to put decorative edges on wood projects, this is absolutely the ticket. It holds the tool under the table, and you mount your shaping bit in it. Turn it on, run your piece against the stationary tool, and your edge is routed. It also works great for small dado grooves with a straight bit. The new table surface is even smoother than before, and it's plenty big enough for small craft projects. It's also a great setup for sanding: Just chuck in a sanding drum and move your workpiece against it. If you've got a rotary tool, get this.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Dremel Shaper/Router Table:

I have used this product for several years and it has become one of my favorite tools. Its easy to set up and easy to use. It works with almost all of the Dremel motors. I highly recommend this to anyone who works with small wood projects. Too bad the router bits get dull so fast.

This table makes for steady routing:

This router table works very well with my Dremel MultiPro tool. I have been making a lot of grooves and notches in wood, and the table keeps the cuts consistent. There is an adjustable fence for precise wood placement as it passes through the bit, as well as an up-and-down adjuster for cut depth in the wood. I have a very specific application for this table, and I've been able to get my grooves and edgings precise every time, which is essential for my project. This router table is a must-have for anyone who... more info

Great for model making:

This is an excellent mini router table for scale model making. I use it for building architectural models and it is a great addition to my 6x4 workshop. It works perfectly fine. If you're going to use this table with Dremel 400, you need an adapter. Just call Dremel customer service and get one for free.
