What a time saver!
I worked for over an hour hand-sanding a coffee table I built for our deck out of some pretty rough lumber, and was getting nowhere fast. This great little random orbital sander arrived in the nick of time, and I finished the whole table in about 15 minutes, with much better looking results. It will get a lot of use around here. As a female woodworker, I sometimes have trouble using tools that ...

GREAT ROUTER - LOOK NO FURTHER
Being a do-it-yourself homeowner, over the years I've owned many tools. However, until purchasing this Porter Cable 690LR router, I had never owned a router before. I had always wanted one but could never justify making a purchase. Heck, my idea of fine woodworking usually entailed 2x4's, wood screws, and glue. But there came a day recently when I decided to take on the project of making ...

Compact Finishing Sander
Although I primarily use a variety of random orbit & belt sanders as a weekend woodworker, I've found that 1/4 and 1/2 sheet sanders have an important place in every serious woodworker's shop. The pre-stain wood preparation from these sanders is flawless. I also use the sheet sanders with 220 or 320 grit sandpaper between polyurethane coats.
I own the Porter-Cable 303 Speed-Bloc and the 505 ...

Great compressor and nailers !
This unit is a real workhorse. If you break in the compressor properly as the instructions tell you how to do... it works great time after time. The finish nailer is very powerful, and the smaller brad nailer is just right for trim work. Haven't had a need to use the narrow crown stapler yet, but even without that it would still be worth the $279 I paid. Throw in free shipping to my doorstep and ...

i've had this gun for 4 yrs and running. driven untold boxes of nails through it. dropped it. the metal magazine is solid, the loading mechanism fast and stout, the depth adjustment straight forward and rugged. but the true beauty is the trigger which allows single shot or bounce with the turn of this little dial. so nice. year ago the main gasket went, but the rebuilt kit and 1/2hr and she's ...

So easy it almost makes dovetails by itself
I purchased the 4212 at a tradeshow a couple of months back...Sorry Amazon. The machines is extremely user friendly and very easy to set up. If you have gone through the trial and error of the $75.00 Crafstman jigs to the $300.00+ Leigh Jigs and have been frustrated with your esults this is the machine for you. It took me about 30 minutes to get it set up when I took it out of the box. My jig was ...

Porter Cable Pad
These replacement pads are a necessity for anyone that does more than occassional sanding. The new ones work just great. It is too bad that they wear out quickly, usually less than a year under weekly use. You can extend the life of the pads by two simple actions. 1) Clean the pad with your shop vacuum each time you change the sandpaper. 2) Don't press on the sander while sanding. Let the ...

Great compressor, but know what it's good for 1st, then buy it
My background: I am a General Contractor/Finish Carpenter, 20yrs in the business. Some of the tool reviews I see are flawed based on perception; "this or that tool doesn't do everything I hoped it would" - regardless of the tool designer's intention. Granted, there are some crappy, poorly designed tools out there, and it's good to have feedback to prevent buying mistakes.
That said, be honest ...

must have
This item completes my buffer to a great orbital sander. I use it for refinishing my Hi Macs (type of corian) counter tops as over time and hard use they need to be renewed. You must have special sanding paper 1200 to 1500 to do this.

Buy this nozzle for latex applications
If you are spraying a latex product with an HVLP air sprayer, don't even bother with the 2.0mm nozzle kit - go straight to the 2.2mm Nozzle Kit. I have the Porter Cable HVLP air sprayer and I originally bought the 2.0mm nozzle and it would only work if I really watered down the paint. The problem with that is I hardly got any coverage and it was very runny.
So then I went with the 2.2mm Nozzle ...

Better than a good cowdog
Last week we installed about 1600 sqft of 5/8 bamboo flooring. As others have noted, the foot is designed for 3/4" flooring, with no provision for 5/8 or other. I feel this is the only shortcoming with the nailer. We tried a variety of spacers, and eventually came up with a plexiglass (~1/8"?? it was a scrap we had about)spacer that shot nails perfectly into our test pieces. I agree with ...

1/4" collet for PC 7518
Unfortunately, the Porter Cable 7518 router only includes a 1/2" collet. This 1/4" self-releasing collet allows the woodworker who already purchased 1/4" bits to use the older bits in the PC 7518, saving the cost of purcashing new 1/2" bits. This collet fits in all Porter Cable 690 router series as well. If you've ever delt with a frozen router bit, you'll appreciate the self-releasing feature.

Corner Chisel
This corner chisel worked very well. I use it for many things but the main reason for the corner chisel is I convert old wood window screens into windows by routing a rabbit for the new glass to go into but I need to square the corners. That is were the corner chisel comes in, it just takes seconds.
