Tools to Get the Job Done!


Rotary Cutter ($16.95) We believe in using bias cut cloth to tape seams and over tight radii. It was always a hassle to cut the cloth on a bias until we found these rotary cloth cutters. Of course, those who sew have known about them for years. This cutter won’t help trim the cloth around your sheer line, but it is worthwhile just to have for cutting bias material.

Soft Interface Pads ($11.95) This is a foam pad with hook on one side and loop on the other. It is 5” in diameter, has 8 holes for the Dewalt or Ryobi Random Orbit sanders or 5 holes for the Porter Cable Random Orbit Sander for dust collection. The purpose of this pad is to allow your sandpaper to conform more readily to either the outer hull or inner hull. This increases your efficiency and gives you a better, more consistent sanding job without flat spots.

Fairing Board ($23.95) This is a flexible board made from thin plywood with fiberglass on the back for strength. The working surface has Velcro glued to it so you can use Hook-It sandpaper. This board works really well for fairing your cedar hull after you have taken the corners down with a spokeshave or block plane. Sandpaper included: one sheet each of 40, 60, and 80 grit. The lighter grits can be used to fair out a lump epoxy job.

Hook-It Sandpaper for the Fairing Board ($2.95 ea.) 4-1/2" x 15" sheet

Shinto Wood Rasp ($22.95) This tool is a confidence builder! Yes, it looks like a bunch of hack saw blades welded together, but it works well to help you creep up on the shaping of your stems. It also can be used to knock down those epoxy drools on your outer hull. We like to use it to rough up our gunwales to create "bite" for the epoxy. The unique design prevents clogging.

Ryoba Razor Saw ($36.95) This Japanese saw cuts on the pull. The teeth on one side are 22 per inch for cross cutting and the other side has deeper teeth for ripping. In either situation this tool works well because you can control your cut easily and therefore do a better job.

6" Beading Saw ($29.95) This saw is great! It has very fine teeth so you make very precise cuts. We use it to cut the long angles of our strips when doing the herring bone pattern on the bottom of a boat. A really different feature is the "Woodpecker" tooth that allows you to start out in the middle of your kayak and cut a precise, thin kerf slice. We use it to start all of our flush hatch opening on the kayaks.

Flat Sole Kunz Spokeshave ($32.95) A spokeshave is used to shape your stems and to fair your outer hull. This design works well because it has two threaded adjusters so you can creep up on your depth adjustment and maintain the correct angle.

       
 

PDK-211 ($23.95) An outstanding value for a scraper handle with 3 blades. The blade shapes included are: small channel, crescent, and pointed channel. Now you only need one handle and you can change blade profiles or switch to a sharper blade in seconds.

MB-100 with MB-206 ($19.95) The MB-100 handle and channel blade with the extra MB-206 Crescent blade. This allows you to only purchase the blades that work for your personal applications.

PDK-211, Molding Handle with three blades


MB-206, Crescent Blade ($7.50) This blade is the one that works best for scraping the inner hull of your stripper when you first take it off the mold forms. It works ONLY with the MB-100 handle, but NOT with the US-100.

Stanley #60-1/2 Low Angle Block Plane ($54.95) Low angle cutter seats at 13-1/2 degrees. Fully adjustable for depths of cut, cutter alignment, and size of mouth. Particularly effective on end grain.

 
Stanley #9-1/2 Block Plane ($54.95) The #9-1/2 plane is a workhorse plane; it's one handed use, 20 degree blade angle and 7" length make it perfect to fair your outer hull.

The Veritas Sharpening System ($55.95) is a precision guide and an angle setting jig for bevels. You can hone blades at exactly the angle you choose every time. Holds blades up to 2.5"wide and 5/8"thick. Unique cam roller creates micro-bevel without clamping or resetting tool. Angle-setting jig sets blade angle.


Bits– Coving and Beading Set, two bits ($38.95), OR Stacked ($33.00) One Bit
The cove, bead and stacked router bits have a ¼" shank and carbide cutting edges. These are the same design bits that we used for years when we milled the bead and cove with routers. If you use the stacked bit, you have both cove and bead on one bit. Change from one to the other by lowering or raising the bit in your router table.


3M Respirator & Filters NEW! 3M Respirator Model 7502. This is a new and updated Half Facepiece Respirator body only (filters are additional). What is really great about this is that the silicone is very flexible, comfortable and conforming. This respirator is actually a joy to wear! The size says medium, but this will fit most adults as it runs a little big. Use with our Organic filters or Dust/Mist filters, also made by 3M. The Organic Vapor filter is used when applying epoxy or varnish. It really makes a difference in filtering out the chemicals. There is a plastic retainer to hold a pre-filter which keep your Organic Vapor body from getting plugged up if you are in a dusty situation. When not using the Organic Vapor filter, keep it sealed in a zip lock bag to prevent deterioration of its carbon. If you need protection from sanding dust, not chemicals, use the 2071 Dust/Mist filter. It is less expensive than the Organic Vapor filter and very effective for dust.

Note: The Organic Vapor Filter or Dust/Mist Filter are required for the Respirator to work properly.
