Some neat features.
For $600, you'd think they could include a couple of drill collars.
Ugh.

I think Woodpeckers is starting to delve into Bridge City territory. Invent a nice tool and charge a fortune for it. Nice features, but no capability that I don't already have with my existing tools.

Of what use are dowels in this day and age of dominos?
Thanks, Curt

I have a doweling jig that I used the other day. I don't have the money to buy a domino.

Ugh.
For $600.00 you'd think they would toss in some nice drill bits with those drill collars.

Ever make leaves for a dining table? Doweling jig is useful to align the pins and receivers. I used a plastic jig for much less.

Grant it they have great tools but I do believe it is expensive over kill, wish them luck in selling them.
