It’s been a while since we first brought these two woodworking accessories to your attention and we continue to receive email and calls asking where to find these bits and blades. So when a new catalog landed on my desk, I thought it would be the right time to pass along the information.
Colt Maxicut Forstner Bits
We discovered these bits at 2008 International Woodworking Fair in Atlanta. Editor, Christopher Schwarz wrote that these bits “…¦. chewed through wood like nothing I’ve ever seen.” To read his entry in its entirety, click here. And you can’t get a better look at what makes these bits so nice without watching the video from the Popular Woodworking shop (Click here to watch the video).
If you know about these bits and want to jump straight to where you can pick up one, two or an entire set, click here to visit Infinity Cutting Tools. Infinity has the complete line of Maxicut bits.
Bosch Xtra-Clean Blades
Sometime back in early June 2008, Senior Editor, Robert W. Lang wrote about a new jig saw blade from Bosch that delivered “…¦ better cuts than we have ever seen from a jigsaw.” The entire staff immediately noticed a difference. To read his entry, click here. And don’t forget to check out the video at the bottom of the entry.
When we wrote about the blades we called them Xtra-Clean because that’s what is written on the side of the blades. But if you’re trying to purchase these blades, you need to know the Bosch product number , T308B. Load that number into a search at Amazon.com and you’ll get the information, click here to see the information.
No excuses now! You know where to find these bits and blades. But do continue to email or ask us questions. We enjoy that part of the job.
