What appears to be the Terminator version of a level, Stanley terrorizes your toolbox with their new FATMAX Lighted level, includes shock absorbing ends, uses 3 AAA (does not say if included) to light up those little bubbles of greenness’. Didn’t get one for review, but looks sturdy, probably don’t want me dropping it from my 20 foot roof top. This adds to something like 50 different levels they manufacture! I guess we all have different levels of need… ya that sounded cheesy, but I love cheese.
If you don’t feel like mucking around with batteries to to get level in the dark, you might want to check out the Torpedo Level (See Lee Valley which has it on special for only 8.50 CDN at: www.leevalley.com) which features phosphorescent frames so you just put it up to the light and then drag it down to… say the dark dungeon your building in the basement as a common example. It’s magnetic by the way, might come in handy in some instances, and it’s made in AMERICA!
Interesting user experiances, and has had a lot, on lazer cutters at www.inlay.com. Explains all the workings and various considerations/factors of material. Even if you will never own one, as I, it’s very interesting as he explains all the details on how they work as well as operation.
Just wanted to point out CH’s (Campbell Hausfeld) dedicated air powered nailers site, quite the products! See it at: www.chnailers.com
They feature lazer guide, bubble levels and a really cool swivel hose adaptor and what I find… cool is the Built-in stud finder (15 gauge only) to name a few.
Interesting design and nice flexibility, the Walko workbench does have some innovative features. What most struck me was the ability to lay it down on its side, when setup as a saw horse, and get a flat table to cut sheets of 4′ x 8′. I guess typical workbench legs could be adapted to do this with a little innovative add-on.
Walko Tables are light weight, portable, and sturdy. The Walko-4 Frame weighs in at a 41.8 Pounds, and folds up to be carried in seconds. The Bamboo table tops are water resistant and light weight as well. Everything about this table is engineered to last, and provide reliability on the job site or in the shop.
Vermont American introduces a new line of carbide blades.
All blades have a heavy, fully-hardened plate to resist deflection under load, laser-cut body with precision tolerances for accurate cuts, tri-metal shim braze that increases impact resistance for longer life and helps prevent fractures in the carbide teeth, patented C3 Dyanite™ carbide that lasts 6 times longer than standard carbide and their extra-large teeth that allow re-sharpening for extended life.
The 27247 blade is designed to work with 6-1/2” standard or wormdrive circular saws and has a 40-tooth count to deliver clean cuts whether ripping or cross-cutting.
The vast majority of portable circular saws use a 7-1/4” blade and Vermont American has introduced six new blades to tackle a variety of applications. All blades include a diamond arbor knock-out for wormdrive saws.
In the 7-1/4” wood cutting category, Vermont American offers three blades:
27248 – Designed for ripping, this blade has 12 teeth and a Flat Top Grind (FTG) configuration. In tandem, these features allow users to cut wider boards along their length or quickly resize plywood or building panels.
27249 – Able to rip or cross-cut, the blade has 24 teeth and an Alternate Top Bevel (ATB) tooth configuration.
27250 – Rip or cross-cut, but with a 40 tooth ATB configuration, this blade produces a cleaner cut for pieces where a smoother finish is desired.
