Silly, silly me. I'm on the Axiom forums, yet didn't post a pic. I swear, if my head weren't attached.....

Since these PC Dovetail Jigs don't have dust collector options, I think I'll build a little "clampable" platform for it that will hold the red dust collector thingamabob.

I got the dovetail jig with the extra template for miniature through and half-blind dovetails and miniature box joints 'cuz I might try some small-box projects for kicks...

Randy Cable? I had no idea...

Sounds like what you get when electrons excite the wire in Monster Cables...

Good idea with the small jig template, really expands the projects you can use dovetails on.

Enjoy the sawdust.

I had been keeping my eye on the pricing for this DeWalt stand to use for my Ridgid Planer:


When I first saw it on Amazon, it was something like $120 for eight weeks while I kept prioritizing other things. Then it jumped to ~$180 where it has been for months... so I planned on building one. It's come down a bit lately...

Yesterday, I saw and bought this at Sam's Club for $165 instead:



Mee Likey! \:\)

For what I would have to pay for the wood, castors and draw slides, it would have cost me the same in the end. I might even buy two more, putting them back to back with a homebuilt "bridge" top to make an assembly bench.

I've been keeping my eye out for tool stands/carts, etc. for awhile, and this is the best deal I've come across by far. The reviews on the Sam's Club site are excellent; I plan on assembling this today and will see for myself. I'll post back if anyone is interested. It sometimes seems like there's always a need in workshops for tool stands / rolling carts so I thought someone here might be interested...

I'm spending the day re-organizing my workshop...it's so out of control right now I can't even find a horizontal surface to work on anything!

Mee likey too!

Speaking of Amazon, I see some of their prices changing on a daily basis, sometimes as much as 25-40% over night, then back and forth(?).
I had my eye on the Bostitch 15 gauge nailer...a while back I could have picked one up for around $100 US, these days it's North of $150

I have about 100 items in my Amazon basket.... seriously. I had always made good use of my wishlist as a reminder of a CD that someone recommended or a tool that was "best reviewed" that I know I'll be looking for someday. But I've emptied my wishlist into the "save for later" part of my shopping basket.

When doing this, everytime you go into your basket it shows you what prices have risen or been lowered on the items. It gives me the opportunity to "jump" if there's a good price decrease. I check daily! \:\)
