DRO Mount is precision CNC machined from billet aircraft grade aluminum, and comes with quality stainless steel socket hardware. This is a bolt-on upgrade, there are no holes to drill. Once you follow the 30 minute installation and calibration procedure, you will be able to consistently hold thicknesses on your planed woods to 0.005" or better in a repeatable manner. This is a precision above and beyond you can achieve with a sticky back ruler.

Katya Ironworks developed the rigid mount you need. Precision CNC milled out of billet aluminum and over 6 mm thick, it securely holds onto your machine using six socket bolts. It securely clamps the DRO on its flat milled surface for ultimate precision. You have invested a lot of money in your DeWalt DW735/X. Unlock its true potential and make it the industrial grade precision woodworking monster it was meant to be.

Our kit is proudly Made in USA.

If you have a different planer, check out our shop. If you do not find your model contact us: we can custom build one for your planer. It works best with gantry type planers with a cast metal base and a 13" or larger capacity.

- APPEARANCE: The beautiful engine-turned and precision-flat finish of your kit will no longer be covered up by an unsightly galvanized bracket. Your machine will have an even more professional, finished look.
- RIGIDITY: Precision CNC machined from billet metal, these parts pull the DRO closer to your planer, reducing the lever-arm effects. The rigidity increases beyond what the DRO is able to measure.
- LONGEVITY: The stock WR510 is installed with a spring that holds it in place using tension. Springs are wear items, easily damaged, and not repeatable. You will eliminate this spring and replace it with tank-like solid parts that will outlast your planer.
- SIMPLICITY: You will only use the DRO display and the ruler for a very clean look. Robust installation, and easier maintenance is achieved. The Wixey finger hook, the back plate, and the side brackets, are eliminated – the dust that normally sticks between the wedges these parts form will fall out on its own, or easily brushed away. And calibrating the DRO becomes easier with one test cut instead of repeated attempts to line it up with the tray.
