The new Bridge City Tools Jointmaker Pro is probably the most innovative and controversial new hand tool introduced in the last decade. The Jointmaker’s sliding table floats over a Japanese sawblade, allowing you to make amazingly smooth, clean and precise cuts.
The internet message boards have been atwitter with the news of the Jointmaker. Some have hailed as the best thing since sliced bubinga. Others have had harsh words for the price or the fact that “it’s cheating.”
We want you to decide.
We’re bringing the tool’s inventor, John Economaki, here to our offices in Cincinnati for a free event at 6 p.m. on June 19. We will serve you a free pizza dinner (plus cookies!) and then you’ll get to see and hear how the Jointmaker Pro works. You’ll also get to try one for yourself.
And if you have been living under a rock for the last few months, here are some links that will help explain this remarkable new device:
A blog entry I wrote on the Jointmaker when it was introduced.
A link to the Bridge City web site.
A link to a video showing it in action.
We’d very much like you to join us, but space is limited to 60 people. Please RSVP to Managing Editor Megan Fitzpatrick at megan.fitzpatrick@fwpubs.com so we can save you a space.
