Where I could buy it in USA or only online, I have a friend travelling, in the next days, to USA and could bring it for me?
BEST ANSWER: Rockler notes in their website "welcome" and "information about us," that they have a chain of stores across the USA. I'd suggest phoning, or emailing Rockler's main office (look up phone number or email address on their website), give them the zip code, or city name, your friend will be traveling through, or near, and Rockler staff will be more than happy to point you in the right direction.

What is the length of the XL Riser (not counting the screws on each end) and the thickness of the Bench Cookie? I want to use these in combination as a leg for a work surface.

Dancing in the Streets
If they made these things for your shoes, short men everywhere would be dancing in the streets. But for the workbench, they're awful handy, too. No more accidental drill holes in your bench top (what, am I the only one?), no more back pain from bending over tedious projects (sorry, Dr. Sawbones, no more chiropractic appointments for me!), and those little rubbery gripper pads hang onto wood like a gecko scrambling up the side of your house. In fact, if an iguana ever tried to walk across one of these things... well, I guess that's why they make crowbars. Very handy product and I think I'll be getting four more cookies to go with the ones I have; using these is far simpler than scrounging for scraps of wood to elevate your workpiece.

Bench Cookie Kit
This kit includes everything needed to make sanding, painting or staining a project easily. You can stain one side, flip it over and get the other side almost immediately by using the attachments provided. The cookies alone provide a stable and slip free sanding platform.

Bench Cookies Work
I just got back into woodworking after 20 years. Lots of new tools available. Discovered Bench Cookies and decided to try. Great decision! I built a change table for my new granddaughter and used the Cookies exclusively to route lots of pieces including some narrow boards. The wood never moved no matter how much I pushed on the router. I use the tall posts when cutting curves through the middle of a board with a hand jig saw. The blade never hit the bench and the wood remained in place. Great product. I bought two sets and am considering another. Great for staining lots of pieces at once. I highly recommend these to any novice woodworker.

FLEXIBLE CONVENIENCE
These bench cookies worked out great for me during the finishing of a medium size original picture frame made from old lumber (c. 1860). The raised drying supports allowed a quick and convenient drying arrangement. A welcome addition to my shop accessories which I would recommend to anyone.

GREAT PRODUCT!!!
This is a must have for any shop. Kit is a great starter to get you hook on these. The only complaint that I have is the finishing cups don't have a positive lock. They are just a little easy to knock off.

I love my bench cookies
I purchase a basic set of Bench Cookies when they were first introduced. I use them all the time in my shop. They work very well and they are so handy. I jumped at the chance to purchase the Bench Cookie Plus Master Kit when they went on sale recently. I put those to use the day they came in the mail. Bench Cookies are a simple innovation, but I find them invaluable in my shop. The quality of the components are excellent.

Simple Functionality
First, I'm no pro, I'm just beginning to enter this woodworking thing so I have very little experience. That said, I do like these "cookies" after my first use of them (to keep a piece stable while routing). I placed them on a sheet of plywood set on two sawhorses after blowing the plywood clean of sawdust/dirt. Any slight down pressure (i.e. router weight) was plenty to keep the piece from any lateral movement. Simple and effective!
I later used the finishing cones while painting another project and really wasn't all that impressed. Just about anything can be used to raise a project off the table (I've even cut up glue sticks), but having a pointed top is much more effective if both sides are painted/stained (less surface touch). However, these little doodads don't snap onto the cookies or risers or even each other (for storage). So they lose a star for that alone (Really Rockler, that would have been so simple to accomplish).
In the end, I like their overall functionality, and the one little drawback isn't enough for me to not recommend them. I got them on sale, so I'm pleased with the purchase.

You'll love this set with wall mount
I've been looking over this set for awhile, but the price seemed a bit too high. Rockler put it on sale, and now I have it hanging proudly in my shop.
