Wall-mounted mud collector is a cut price
Should you hold hose runs comparatively brief, a compact, wall-mounted mud collector like this may function the only real collector in a small store, with out occupying valuable ground house. Additionally they work nice as an addition to a bigger collector, letting you keep away from operating hoses throughout the store ground. This 1-hp unit from Powertec is analogous in measurement, filtration, and options to the wall-mounted collectors I reviewed favorably in FWW #286. At simply $260, it beats all of them on value.

Nook clamps come in useful
At simply $28 for an eight-piece set, these nook clamps from Viking Mountain Device Works do an important job holding cupboard and field components in place when you screw or in any other case be part of them collectively. They modify simply and maintain firmly, leaving room for screw entry in addition to bar clamps for glued joints. Go to VMTW.com for more information.
Cheap sawblade is surprisingly good
I personal a few thick, high-end table-saw blades, which ship clear cuts within the hardest supplies. However not each woodworker has a robust cupboard noticed like I do, nor the finances for blades priced properly above $100 every. Enter Freud’s new Wooden Demon Final Normal Function Noticed Blade (merchandise no. D1040UX). At simply $50, this 10-in. by 40-tooth mixture blade delivered surprisingly clear cuts in my exams. Its super-thin kerf is particularly suited to saws with much less horsepower, permitting them to deal with thicker hardwoods. Go to DiabloTools.com.
