Accuracy is the main aim of every woodworker, yet we all manage to include a few glitches in our projects be it a rocking shelf, a poorly mounted hinge or a ragged edge to a drill hole. and nothing needs more care and attention than the European System 32 hardware.
With our Layout Kit most of these problems are solved. How does it work?
The self adhesive tape is marked at exact 32mm centres with the drilling positions.
These positions are also 37mm from the edge on one side and 35mm on the other.
Therefore you simply;
Set the tape out with required edge in line with the edge of the workpiece, starting at the one end of the panel and on an exact 32mm position.
Lightly rub the tape to ensure it is adhered to the workpiece, on veneers and solid timber this will help eliminate ragged holes.
Using the marked holes position the 5.0mm Layout bit and drill all the holes or as many of the holes as your project needs.
The carefully remove the tape and marvel at the crisp accurate holes you've produced.
Notice the 'dbc' logo on the tape? This indicates it's part of the 'Designed By Cabinetmakers' range
The Pneumatic Quad Trimmer makes trimming edge banding quick and easy! In one pass it trims both sides of the both sides of edge banding. With a comfortable and ergonomic design the Quad Trimmer trims in all directions for a super smooth finish. The last trimmer you will ever buy!
The Pneumatic Quad Trimmer PRO has Tungsten Carbide blades making it ideal tough edge trimming jobs. With the same comfortable and ergonomic design as the Quad Trimmer the Quad Trimmer PRO trims in all directions for a super smooth finish.
Trimming edging be it Laminate, PVC or Timber Veneer can be tricky, usually it involves a knife, a block of wood for backing and somewhere to hold the workpiece, one slip and the edging can be damaged.
Here's the solution.....
Flush Cut Pliers, place them up against the edge of the panel. snip!! and you have a clean cut edge, no splitting, no chipping and no repairing.
Not suitable for use on edges thicker than 2.00mm or nails etc.
The New FastBreak sander allows you to uniformly break or ariss the edge on sharp melamine or timber material in just one pass. The FastBreak dramatically increases the speed and efficiency in which you ease and break sharp and chipped edges.
Likes its smaller brother the Large Fast Break Edger is able to 'break' or ariss both edges of a panel at once. The larger unit is ideal for thicker panels like doors but can still look after smaller items. Supplied with both 80 grit and 180 grit sandpaper.
The new 1/16" (1.59mm) Radius Plane From FastCap is a work of art, it is handcrafted from solid ebony, brass and precision machined steel. To hold this little gem in your hand is to know why you love woodworking.
Relieving the sharp edges on a both hard and softwoods is usually done with a few plane strokes and a lot of sanding... the result OK! but not uniform, crisp and clean. With the Radius Plane great edges are the norm not the exception.
In days gone by..... pinned tenons were considered to pinnacle of joinery methods.
Mortice & Tenon joints were held together with tapered square wooden pins, driven into holes drilled into the assembled joint, thus giving incredible strength. Sometimes these pins were trimmed flush with the surface, but most times they were left slightly above the surface.
These days with modern adhesives the need for pinning joints has disappeared, regrettably so has a construction style that added both 'olde worlde' charm and a WOW factor to the simplest projects.
With the Artisan Accents you can add that style to your projects simply.
The accents are precision moulded plastic in an Ebony colour that are simply knocked into a mortice created with the special purpose chisel (available separately)
Here's simplicity itself... The Artisan Accent Mortice Chisel, designed to make the fitting of Artisan Accents a breeze. With a simple hammer blow, it makes the necessary mortice and pin holes, Approximately 8mm square.
Need to add fractions of inches and millimetres together?
Now calculations like.....
17/64" + 11mm - 2.3mm are simple!!! ....... It's 19/32" 0r 15.44687mm by the way.
Never forget your calculations with ConverterPro cabinetmaker calculator. Easily convert between imperial, metric and fractions in seconds. The convenient erasable notepad allows to write down your notes and measurements, thus eliminating costly mistakes and a lot of head scratching.
With our Layout Kit most of these problems are solved. How does it work?
