Tool Reviews

Cordless tools have come a long way in a little more than 20 years. Now there are cordless versions of tools that we never thought possible. I this video you'll see how we used a cordless biscuit joiner , router, sander and even a miter saw to make a beautiful oak picture frame.

In this Rockler demonstration we'll show you five new tools that you might have missed. All five of these tools were introduced in the past six months, but they are from different tools categories. We’re betting at least one of these tools will be something you’ll want in your shop. Let’s get started!

Is there a difference between a low-angle and standard block plane?

Combining both a fixed base and plunge base with a sophisticated motor, SKIL has stepped up to a new quality level with this router.

Rockler's mobile clamp rack storage system has long been a customer favorite. But, as the saying goes there's always room for improvement and our product development team couldn't resist the opportunity to make the pack rack system even better! Meet the Pack Rack Plus, mobile clamp and tool storage system. Rolling clamps around your shop is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to uses for this system!

Are curved- and flat-edged drawknives intended for different tasks?

What do amp hours mean if they don't tell you the run time of the battery?

In this Rockler demo video you'll learn how elevating your projects with Bench Cookie Plus and the new Bench Cookie Connect will lift, grip and protect. Both the Bench Cookie Plus and larger Bench Cookie Connect feature high-friction rubber pads that hold your project rock-steady while sawing, sanding, or routing without the use of clamps. Plus they now include a threaded insert for adding a variety of accessories, that elevate your work and provide plenty of clearance for all your project needs.
