Kreg Deck Jig

Bosch's GCM12SD 12" Dual-Bevel Glide Miter Saw is the first miter saw to use the patented Axial-Glide"¹ system, which replaces sliding rails with an articulating glide arm system. The Axial-Glide folds the articulated arm Hush with the back of the saw, saving up to 12" of workspace and enabling the saw to be operated with almost no clearance behind it. Replacing a rail assembly with cast-aluminum arms retains the alignment and calibration in harsh conditions, and the 12 sealed precision ball bearings that take the place of a sliding rail interface provide smooth travel and control at all miter and bevel angles. A glide damper also allows users to increase or decrease the glide action to meet their exact needs. Cutting capacity is 14" horizontal, 6/2" maximum vertical cutting capacity against the fence (for base molding) and 6/2" cutting capacity when cutting crown molding against the fence. Two sliding material supports are integrated into the base, which has a total extended length of 40". The saw has a 52° left and 60° right miter range, with 10 adjustable miter detents and a detent override. Bevel angles can be adjusted 0-47° left and right, with two 33.9° stops. Suggested price is $700.

If you've started your new year dreaming of a new deck, you may be interested in the Kreg Deck Jig. It has an easy-grip handle and hardened steel drill guides to give you precise angles, secure hold and control over each joint during your deck building. Spacer rings

If you're installing crown molding, the Crown Support from Bench Dog Tools can give you a hand — so you don't have to wait on the availability of your spouse or your neighbor. The support assembly threads on to most standard 12-foot painter's poles, as w^rell as a couple of specialty options, and straddles die molding. You can then slide the molding around and adjust it for the lightest fit possible, without need to climb up and down the ladder to readjust the molding support device.
