New Incra iBOX
Has any one tried one of these out yet? It is on my "next to get" list,
I think. Looks to be a decent price, $170. Looks like one can finally make the box joint fit the project rather than having to do it the ouhter way around. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=1oP-FnHfo9o |

Nice looking product...
Really well engineered it seems. Those teeth look like Steel.. I would have like to see alum so that an accident causes me to replace its locator tooth rather than a blade and locator. Other than that real nice. On 5/17/2012 10:07 AM, Leon wrote: Has any one tried one of these out yet? It is on my "next to get" list, I think. Looks to be a decent price, $170.

Since I have the Woodwoodsmith box joint jig, which works just fine; and the Akeda Dovetail jig I got from Han does box joints quickly and easily, so I probably won't be getting one of these any time soon. -- www.eWoodShop.com Last update: 4/15/2010 KarlCaillouet@ (the obvious) http://gplus.to/eWoodShop |

Do you have the aluminum WoodSmith jig? I saw that one plus the one that you build with a kit, that one appears to work like the Incra. I may have to try the $15 kit...once back in stock. I did not notice any plans in past WoodWmith issues which is odd. |

WoodSmith or Shopnotes.
Hey a question about Woodsmith and Shopnotes.
I have never subscribed. Currently I am not subscribed to anything so I have some wiggle room. The occasions I have seen either, they don't seem to offer much. But there probably are little gems. Is it worth a subscription?? On 5/17/2012 11:34 AM, Leon wrote: On 5/17/2012 9:55 AM, Swingman wrote: On 5/17/2012 9:07 AM, Leon wrote: Has any one tried one of these out yet?

I did not notice any plans in past WoodWmith issues which is odd. With the exception of the first 6 issues of WoodSmith I have all of them. I have all of the SopNotes. Worth it, maybe. Little advertising and pretty good instructions. I reference back issues with the indexing system often. Always resubscribe by e-mail and ask for the introductory web site price vs. the re-up price which is generally 30 % more. And for $99 you can get all 200 back issues on DVD. |

They both are fairly decent but Shop Notes leans toward tools and jigs while Woodsmith is more toward "very" detailed furniture plans and ideas. I used to get both but Shop Notes does get a little redundant after a year or two. |

Every plan I see has a price. Is that because I need to use the
magazines URL to get to the projects? On 5/17/2012 3:25 PM, Lew Hodgett wrote: "tiredofspam" wrote: Hey a question about Woodsmith and Shopnotes. Is it worth a subscription?? ----------------- WoodSmithShop projects can be downloaded as pdf files, free of charge. Lew |

The occasions I have seen either, they don't seem to offer much. But there probably are little gems. Is it worth a subscription?? In this area, I'm down to Fine Woodworking ($5/issue) and Shopnotes ($2.33/issue). Together that is $49/yr. They are worth it to me as "Edu-tainment". In a nutshell, Fine Woodworking has the best pictures ("inspiration"), and Shopnotes has the best ideas (or at least the most for your time/money). Hope tht helps. Having been a previous subscriber to it and others, my next preference would be "Wood" magazine. Since I also subscribe to WoodCarving magazine, Family Handyman and 2 others, I already have too many! If I didn't resubscribe to Family Handyman, the loss wouldn't be too great (hyperbole). In the current issue, they explain how to try to fix your AC. The article suggests throwing $150 at "the problem" replacing parts, and hope that catches the problem (what a "joke")! Bill |

Of course in tonights mail was a letter from social security disability that they are reducing my benefits to $225 as they think the state L&I is paying me $2600. I've been trying to close the claim since jan of 2011. I'll stop there as I could really go off on Wa. State. Claims manager has to get permission to close my claim for early retirement as I don't plan to return to work. I'm 62 and they want to retrain me. I've got a master electricians license a backhoe and excavator and they want to retrain me at my expense. Anyway I'm looking forward to playing with the jig I think it will be my go to tool for xmas.

Going from It's bad when your body get's bruised just trying to move thru a crowded shop. That will give me 3 WWII blades and I'll put another vote in for the frued dial a dado blade,. Looking forward to going up to a 942 sq. 'shop. As long as I don't buy more large tools it should all fit. Mike M You can always build that jig form the ShopNotes/WoodSmith site... But I think the price of the Incra is a reasonable price and it appears to have a few nice features. Hurry up and get the jig and let us know how it works. I really like the fact that you can alter spacing and make the cuts on any width board. It was an expensive day. I got the jig plus the hingemaker kit as well as the 48 tooth forest WWII. Also finally found a good deal on Craigs list for a set of welding gas tanks to replace the rental one's I had. Of course in tonights mail was a letter from social security disability that they are reducing my benefits to $225 as they think the state L&I is paying me $2600. I've been trying to close the claim since jan of 2011. I'll stop there as I could really go off on Wa. State. Claims manager has to get permission to close my claim for early retirement as I don't plan to return to work. I'm 62 and they want to retrain me. I've got a master electricians license a backhoe and excavator and they want to retrain me at my expense. Anyway I'm looking forward to playing with the jig I think it will be my go to tool for xmas. Love your work Leon I save pictures for ideas. Mike M Have you already got your hands on the jig Mike??? If so where did you get it? I have only seen it at Sacramental Tools so far. I ordered it from Incra. Says they usually ship in 3-5 days so I imagine I will see it the last week of May. I'm looking forward to playing with it. Mike M I am about to pull the trigger myself. I see you ordered the hinge jig too. Did you order the bit set too? As I read it the bit is included |

I have to contemplate that one for awhile but I'll probably do it. I probably have the straight bits but I doubt if I have more then one of the bull nose. |

WoodSmith or Shopnotes.
Thanks,
In looking at these plans, most (not all) seem shop related or very simple designs. That's what I was afraid of. So is it worth the subscription price? Well most magazines these days suck. I have stopped all magazines lately. I might give this a try since I have never had a subscription to Woodsmith, knowing that it probably will be just 1 season.

Good thing I ordered before I paid bills and the dentist called to remind me I'm getting another crown done tomorrow. Looks like beans and wieners the rest of the month. If it would stop raining I usually get a lot of easy jobs in all the surounding 5 acre lots. I've got the only excavator so get a fair amount of little jobs which is about how much I want to work. Thanks for pointing that out be pretty dissapointing to not have all the tools to do the job. Mike M |

I'll be ordering mine pretty quick, I just sold a wall full of book cases. I would have had the hinge jig before now had it not been for the special bits. Christmas maybe. ;~) |

That will give me more time to figure out where everything goes in the new shop addition. |
