Fiskars hookaroon… here’s a tip.
We bought this hookaroon in the fall of 2022 and didn’t really start using it until about a month or so ago. The tip broke off yesterday. Hoping to get a warranty claim put through.

Maximum Series 4.5 inch Grinder
This is an unboxing and basic overview of the Canadian Tire Maximum series Grinder, their part #054-4296-4. This grinder is a departure from the normal grinders in that this grinder has a paddle switch. I’m looking for a grinder with a comfortable grip to use with the wood carving blades I recently started using in the workshop.

Sounding off with the belt sander
Workplace safety, we all hear about it but how many actually practice it? Recently I purchased a decibel metre to record the different sounds in the workshop. In this first sound test, we take a look at the belt sander. While making some plywood layered candle holders earlier today, I took the opportunity to test out the metre reader.

Paste Wax
Paste wax your stationary power tool tables to prevent rust and keep the wood sliding smoothly. The only consideration is that wax may transfer to the wood surface. If you are finishing the wood surface with a stain or paint, you will have to carefully prepare the surface. In instances like that, I have a laminate panel I place over the tablesaw and some other stationary power tools to provide a smooth surface that is wax-free.
I also use it on some of my wooden projects to provide a smooth surface as a final finish on top of paint or stain. And I even use it on our cork laminate flooring annually.
