We caught up with Scott Phillips of The American Woodshop and Scott Schaaf, Kreg’s Director of Product Management at the AWFS 2013 Fair in Las Vegas, where they unveiled the details about the all new K5 Jig from Kreg.  Available for ordering now at Woodcraft, shipping in September, this versatile, easy-clamp system for drilling pocket hole joinery for various wood sizes is made easier than ever before with this jig.  

Woodcraft has added the new SawStop Jobsite Saw to its product line so that customers will have SawStop’s patented safety technology available in a portable table saw.

It was great to get back with the weekly Turning Tuesday group at Codger Lodge in Lubeck West Virginia, where we once again become immersed in information exchange, truths and big fish stories, and a wealth of highly useful knowledge combined from the twenty plus characters within. What is Turning Tuesdays, you ask? Well, in the profound words of our host Bill Sands, “Its all about our common interest in all things woodworking bringing us codgers and codgerettes together from diverse backgrounds, to catch up on the tales of life’s adventures and misadventures affording us an opportunity to share the camaraderie.”  This is usually a great place for our Woodworking Adventures to find an interesting story or project right in the local backyard of Woodcraft Corp.

We live in a 3-D world, so our wood projects need to share the same idea. Bending wood is not a new concept, but Earlex makes it easier for you to attain the shapes in your wood projects that you desire.  To help assist you with perfect flowing designs is the new Earlex Steam Generator.  The electric unit is compact, light weight, has thermal protection, and even includes instructions on how you can build your own steam box!  Great for any projects like boating, furniture, instruments, and is only limited to what your imagination can come up with!
