Very cheap power tool parts and accessories

This product is very weak. I used it once. He did his job, but it won't last long. It's made of plastic. This template should be metal, not plastic.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Thin

Serves its purpose for a job, then it's gone.

I needed to install a countertop in my kitchen so I bought this tool. Due to the heat from the cutter and cutter, the jig (its plastic) will begin to melt. However, I only needed the device once, so it served its purpose.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • boring packaging

For a product that is over 15 years old this is utter rubbish.

This is BAD in cheap plastic...worse, it's laser cut and very poorly engraved. As a result, plastic does not withstand the slightest movement. You can't even make scissors out of it. Don't waste your time with this. No improvements in design for over 15 years. Complete Divorce! Doesn't deserve a start to be honest

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Almost never

Works pretty well. Helps to have a flat base router

Worked very well the first time. You just need to make sure your router is FLAT on the fixture. NO tilt or you will tear the plastic mount. I had to use my RYOBI with its flat square base with no gaps in the base. IF you are using screws to hold the light in place try to get them as LOW in the light as possible. Hangs the router and lifts it slightly to cut into the bracket. All in all it's worth it.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • The list will be long.

A great idea. Bad performance. Why plastic?

Made of plastic. A great idea generally resulted in a bad execution. When using a drill with a bearing, the bearing, which is designed to protect the device from destruction by the drill, gets hot enough to melt the plastic. And of course you can imagine what happens when you use a racquet without bearings, it destroys the plastic. In any case, the material used to make the bracket is not ideal. Great idea, bad execution.

Pros
  • Very noticeable
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Powered by 10,900 Zipbolts

As another reviewer noted, the item pictured is not what you will receive. Obviously you're getting a new and improved version, which is a good thing. The description is accurate. You will receive an injection mold. It has templates for both long and short pivot bolts, but I use 10,900 zipbolts and the long template is fine for this. Looks very solid and has screw holes on each corner to fix it. The screw holes are size #6 but I'm pretty sure they fit #8. I haven't used it yet, but I don't…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • I won't say anything

It's made of plastic but does what it's supposed to.

The product description says injection molded. This is not a dizzying duty. But it does exactly what you want it to do if you keep that in mind. Of course, if you don't use a stencil/flush nozzle, you melt the jig. THIS IS PLASTIC! Use common sense. Work slowly, being careful not to overheat the bit enough to melt the attachment. I have used this arrow 16 times and it is still in excellent condition. Yes, there are light scuffs on some sides, but it's still 100% accurate. If you damage this…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of fashion
