Woodcraft Vendor Trade Show - products that caught our eye!


L-R: Tommy Mac (Rough Cuts), Scott and Suzy Phillips (The American Woodshop), Robert Kulp and Mike Whiteside (Black Dog Salvage)

Each year Woodcraft hosts a private Vendor Trade Show for franchise owners and sales managers to meet their vendors and learn about the products first hand.  As partners with Woodcraft, we enjoyed the opportunity to participate and get a front row look at the latest tools available on the market.

Here are a few products that caught our eye:

The Festool TSC 55 Cordless Track Saw


Play the video above to see how much dust this incredible cordless tool can catch!

Apollo Sprayers

 These High-Volume, Low-Pressure (HVLP) sprayers save on waste and are highly efficient.  We can't wait to try this product out in the shop!

GRR-Ripper by Micro Jig

http://www.woodcraft.com/search2/search.aspx?query=grr-ripper


You know it's a good product when it's introduced to you by another vendor!  The fine folks at Kreg told us we had to check out Grr-Ripper by Micro Jeg.  These innovative tools are designed to protect one thing... your fingers.  We can't wait to try them - not that there's anything wrong with missing fingers.  We understand.

Soy Gel Professional Paint Stripper  - we can't wait to try this!  If you've ever stripped a piece of furniture, you know that "100% biodegradable, has no known health hazards, is virtually odorless, and best of all, it works" was music to our ears.


General Finishes

We enjoyed meeting Tom and Sheryl Monahan from General Finishes. Our finishing crew works exclusively with General Finishes' Polyurethane and are told that we'll see great savings when we use the Apollo  Sprayers (mentioned above).


K'A'RCHER




You may have seen the K'A'RCHER 'Clean Team' join forces with Nicole Curtis (from HGTV's Rehab Addict) to help clean up Detroit.  They are simply awesome. People and Products. Win Win.  Check them out HERE.


Fein MultiMaster & Hammer Drill Renovation Kit


Top notch quality and precision... and best of all it's cordless.
The ultimate tool for the Dawgs on the road!



These and many more products are available online and at your local Woodcraft store.
