    hand held router dust collection

    I read an article in FWW a month back by Gregory regarding some heavy duty plunge routers. The only one that seemed to have any actual dust collection ability was the Festool. The price and size of that router may be more than I need at the moment so I am now looking at the Festool 1400 EQ...

    Japanese hand planes

    Hey guys. I was thinking about picking up a couple japanese planes. I have seen some used and seem to like the outcome (as well as wanting to try something new). I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with these tools and the proper way to sharpen them.
