Product Description
UJK Parf Guide System MK II
Create your own custom 20mm worktops in record time
Good news: the UJK Parf Dust Port is now included as standard with each Parf Guide System Mark II. There is no need to order it separately.
Designed by renowned woodworker and inventor Peter Parfitt, we're pleased to provide UJK Technology's Parf Guide System MK II (PGS). A highly accurate means of laying out a pattern of 20mm holes in a work surface, the PGS MKII makes the task both quick and easy. Thanks to the high precision CNC machining used to perfectly position the registration holes along the two Parf sticks and some classical geometry (the Pythagorean theorem), the PGS MKII produces highly accurate hole positions—near CNC accuracy. With an accurate pattern of 20mm holes and a set of our DoubleGroove™ Dogs, you will be able to make the perfect right angle or 45° cuts with your guide rail and track saw.
The design of the MKII Parf Guide system preserves and guarantees the long-term accuracy of the jig as well as improving the ease of use.
The MKII Parf Guide System uses 2 x MKII Parf sticks along with a drill guide and a special 3mm drill bit to create rows and columns of holes at perfect right angles.
The accuracy of the system is dependent on the very tight tolerance of the holes in the Parf stick. The MKII drill guides locate positively into holes in the MKII Parf Stick. The guides feature an oilite bush to guide the MKII 3mm drill bit. This design prevents any possibility of wear or elongation of these vital holes as a result of repeated use. Additional holes in the MKII sticks offer the possibility of drilling intermediate holes at 32mm or 48mm centres or holes at predetermined angles other than 90°. The Parf sticks have a metric scale along one edge so that they may have other uses in the workshop.
How It Works
Based on Pythagorean theorem, the PGS MKII uses two Parf sticks along with a 3mm drill guide and 3mm drill bit to create an accurately placed series of holes with the rows at perfect right angles to the columns. Then the guide block and the special 20mm bit come into play to produce the final pattern of 20mm holes.
Parf Guide System MKII comprises two Parf Sticks, 1m long with a series of 3mm holes along the length at 96mm centers; a 3mm drill guide with 3mm drill bit and three 3mm guide pins. Plus, a guide block and a special 20mm TC drill bit with a 3mm center guide.

New parf guide system mark 2
Unboxed the Parf guide system this morning. Checked out the fit and finish on sticks, drill fixtures, pins, and all parts were spot on. Nice work Axmenster on the manufacturing and to Tso, came very quickly and the packaging was in good shape shape.

Breath of Fresh Air
I recently purchased several products from you including this one and I have to say it is the breath of fresh air that I have been waiting for, recently discovering you on the Paulk website. I am OCD and a perfectionist in my work and this product helps me achieve that on so many levels by simplifying a process that used to be very time consuming! Thank you.

Parf guid system
I bought a track saw a few months ago and was looking to make a MFT table and was trying to figure out how to get the dog hole perfectly spaced. Then I came across the Parf Guide system. So I built a new workbench that would be a track saw cutting station, then used the Parf Guide system for the top and Wow!This product is so awesome and so easy to use. The top came out perfectly. Probably the second best purchase I have made that has really stepped up my wood working game.

Must Have Tool for MFT Building
After 60 years of woodworking, I switched from a cabinet saw to using a Festool Track Saw. I decided to build 2 MFTs, one 48" x 32" and another 4' x 8'. I'm going to include the Parf Guide System in my "Best Money Spent on Tools" category. After reading the instructions and watching some videos, this tool is easy to use and unbelievably accurate! It took me 2 hours to drill all of the holes in the 48" x 32" MFT. After completion of hole drilling, I used my Woodpeckers MFT Layout & Assembly Square to check all of the holes for alignment. The bench dogs slid in every hole snugly with no play in the square. Now I need to shop for more TSO accessories!

Accurate and Precise MFT top drilling jit
I have finally had a chance to use this jig and I am very impressed. Having watched Peter Parfitt videos, for me the process of drilling the 3mm and then the 20mm holes was a breeze, in fact quite enjoyable. It amazes me how great engineering of solutions can make use of basic geometry principles to create a completely accurate system of, in this case, drilling a square hole pattern. Kudos to Peter Parfitt for creating this system and to TSO Products for making it available in the U.S. I am creating two MFT tops to take to work at the local Woodcraft store.....in just materials, the savings over Festool's replacement is significant, plus the process is enjoyable.

Accurate and easy to use!
No regrets with this purchase. I was pleasantly surprised at how intuitive this product was to use. Once you get it started, it's almost mind numbingly easy, as you march around the rest of the work piece. Very high quality. Should last for many years. No other tool comes close to producing this kind of accuracy at this speed, at this price. And you can take it with you, unlike a CNC machine...
