WOODWORKING ESSENTIALS

Bessey Clamps 24 inch 

These are essential for clamping my wood flags. I personally own about # of them. 

Sander Mirka Deros 6" Orbital Sander 

A better sander means a more professional result and saves serious sanding time!

Router Bosch 

Router Bit- Freud 45° chamfer bit

My number one question from fellow woodworkers. Which bit do I use?

I've used this bit for literally hundreds of flags. Keep it clean and it'll last a long time!

 

Shop saw- SawStop Jobsite PRO 

I love my fingers so this was a no brainer. for me. Additionally, my shop is small. So a really nice contactor saw that was mobile was a must. Highly recommend!
