New Sand-Flee Model
Bob Raffo from R.J.R.Studios.L.L.C., manufacturer of the SAND-FLEE (R), sent us an e-mail about a model change for 2005. The new version will be introduced at the Timonium show on January 7th. It will feature a new top design, a new drum, a new fence, and the machine will come completely assembled. These upgrades will make this versatile samding system even more flexible. The company also will be introducing new attachments. If you're not familiar with the machine, it's a portable, easy and effective way to deal with surface sanding needs. Scroll sawyers absolutely love it. You can sand up to 18" wide, with no limitations of height would be useful. Made in the USA, this is a top quality, stainless steel machine.

Laser-guided Router Jig
Welcome to 2005!
Technology is really finding a toehold in the workshop. The latest evidence - a new laser guide designed for the WoodRat joinery machine. It mounts on a DeWALT 625 router and projects bright, easy-to-see crosshairs onto a workpiece held by the WoodRat. The laser lines can beam on the center or the two edges of a router bit. The new laser guide complements WoodRat's ability to position, support and manage both the router and workpiece. Since the router is upright, you can see both the work and the laser crosshairs before and during a cut. The laser provides a more convenient way to set up accurate cuts. It can be used when cutting finger joints, tenons, mortises, dados and dowel joints. Included are instructions, the mounting, the batteries (AAs), and a one-year warranty
