CMT LOCKING PRECISION DADO BLADE SET: 37% OFF

locking dado blade set

The unique design of this dado blade set has quickly made it my favorite dado stack.

The locking plates make setup and installation so much easier than other blades. Just pop it together outside the saw, then slide it on the table saw arbor.

They also prevent the teeth from ever colliding with each other — even during a SawStop activation (watch this video to see what I mean).

That’s part of the reason it’s the first UNI EN847 compliant dado blade set in the European Union.

With this blade, you can cut super accurate joinery faster than ever. And it’s perfect for beginners and pros alike.

CMT DOUBLE-BEARING COMPRESSION FLUSH TRIM BIT: 47% OFF

This may be the end-all-be-all of flush trim bits — and it can handle nearly any job you throw its way.

  • Compression flute design means tearout-free cuts on both edges of your workpiece
  • Double removable bearings allow for unparalleled versatility
  • 2” of cutting length lets you flush trim even 8/4 lumber in a single pass

What I love about this router bit is that it can flush trim super thick boards most bits can’t handle — and also lets you easily deal with shifting grain direction while template routing.

DAMASCUS STEEL MARKING KNIFE: 50% OFF*

Read this for tips on how to use marking knives.

My flagship woodworking tool, the Katz-Moses Magnetic Dovetail Jig is the ultimate partner for your hand saws.

It majorly cuts down on the learning curve for cutting dovetails by hand…

But can be used for so many other applications — from accurate crosscuts to joinery styles like tenons, lap joints, and bridle joints.

You can even use it as a 90° chisel guide!

The jig comes in both 8:1 and 6:1 versions (here’s what that means).
