The page holder is a cool idea, first I've seen it.
I'd say stay with the router table, easier to make a safe template etc for it. The holder has one big convex arc, 2 smaller concave arcs, and 3 rounded points. Do you have a bench belt or disc sander? It could handle all of the shapes except the concave parts.
About grain, say you have a template for the concave arcs, you are standing at the router table, the concave side is away from you, the bit is spinning counter clockwise. For the wing of the holder on the left the bit will dig into the end grain, think of the fur on a short haired dog's back, which way do you pet it? On the right wing it won't grab as much. So route the right wing, and since the holder is symmetrical you can flip it over on your pattern and route the 2nd side that is now on the right.
