I need a few cast iron saw extensions for a project. The SawStop ones
claim to be ground to within .0001. (I will be surprised if they really
are, but very pleased.)

Rockler has them for less, but after the heavy freight charge they are
much more expensive to my door.

Woodcraft shows basic shipping as free saving substantially on the net
cost. Other than the 7-10 day lead time per Woodcraft are there any issues
with Woodcraft?

FYI: This is for a metalworking project, but since the basic frame work
pieces are associated with woodworking tools...


Well, I don't know if I will ever receive the table saw extensions. Atleast
not from WoodCraft.

Their website never showed the order in the history. (Even now) After a
couple days I contacted them and asked when it would ship. I was told it
would ship on Monday. (Last Monday).

I was concerned since there was a hold on my credit card that was larger
than the purchase should have been, so I contacted them to confirm I was
going to get the free shipping indicated on their website. On Tuesday I
received a message saying I was being charged a rather significant amount
for shipping, and wanting to know if I wanted to cancel the order. I
replied that if they had actually already shipped the day before like I had
been told I would accept them and chalk it up as a lesson learned, but if it
had not shipped I wanted to cancel the order, but to please advise me either
way. I never heard back. I know it's a holiday, so I'll wait until Monday
and see. My credit card still shows the hold, but not a charge. I probably
won't buy from WoodCraft on-line again.

Now for the big insult. I have received atleast one SPAM per day from them
ever since the initial order. Some days I received two.
