Default I ordered mine!

More good news about the Kerfmaker from BridgeCity tools.

Most new products prices include shipping, so if you buy one for $72 that
is all you pay. I preordered, 1/2 down now and the rest when the tool
ships in 2-3 weeks.


I did the same right after watching the video. I've wanted one of those
for a long time - I just didn't know what it looked like. :-/

I posted a drawing on a.b.p.w of one that you could build your self, I
was strongly considering doing this, actually strongly considering making
3 or 4. Mine as is will allow a joint of 2.125" wide. The BridgeCity
Tool Kerfmaker will allow for a joint up to 2" wide according to Natasha
at BCT.


With your drawings to guide me, I'm thinking I'd like to build a big one
in Spring for joints up to 7-1/2" wide...



You know Morris when I realized that it would only handle 2" I wondered if
It would be satisfying. hummmm

Uh meee er uh.... I had the same thought. If I need bigger I'll build a
bigger one. The BCT jig is elegant and compact, I thought with smaller
needs that it may be a better choice for the smaller applications.

Because of the intricacy in my drawings and the small parts I think it would
be easier to mill longer pieces and cut up several.
