  Why Buy A BT3000?

  Why Buy A BT3000?
  By Jim Frye

  At least once a week (sometimes once a day), someone on a wood working tool forum somewhere, asks about what table saw to buy for the hobbyist or for the home shop. In almost every instance, that person gets one of two types of answers. They either are told to buy a certain brand or type of saw, or they are told to stay away from a certain type or brand of saw. Almost never are they given factual reasons for the advice, just opinions. Almost always, some...

  A review of the MicroPreciis BT3 fixture blocks

  

  I like the BT3 series table saw because it is innovative. One of the best attributes of the BT series saws is the presence of multiple T-slots in the rip fence, mitre fence, and fence rails. These slots allow the user to attach jigs and fixtures to the saw very easily. MicroPreciis and it's founders, Andrew Perrella and Erik S. Friis have created the BT3x00 Fixture Blocks. These blocks make attaching jigs and fixtures even easer. ...

  Grizzly H7665 21° Framing Nailer

  Since I was in need of a framing nailer for a small project I searched out value priced tools. http://www.bt3central.com/showthread.php?t=28648 After mulling over the options I settled on the Grizzly H7665, $99.95 plus tax and shipping the package arrived at my doorstep on the projected date via UPS. I first read the small short owner's manual, replaced the air inlet to fit the long Lincoln that all my other air tools use. I then followed the directions on testing the nailer. At the manufacturing...

  Triton Respirator

  The Triton Respirator is a whole head respirator that will benefit many people with dust and fume allergies and who work with dangerous fumes on occasion. I am not a professional and I don't think this is geared for the professional daily user. It should work great for most home and home shop users. WHAT I LIKED AND NOTICED IMMEDIATELY: 1. FIT: It adjusts well and fits well. The face mask opens easily and stays up when open and stays shut when closed. I have not had fumes or dust leak in so fa...

  3M Prograde Precision flexible sanding sheets

  I gave this a shot from a local retailer the other day
  
  http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3...293390692&rt=d. The product itself seems very well made. The abrasive is tight to the backing and shows no sign of flaking off as others do. I used 320 and found it to cut very well. I would actually say the 320 cut better than the red Diablo 220g from the BORG. The actual back...
