Senco 300020N SKS-L 7/8-Inch to 1-1/2-Inch 18 Gauge Narrow Crown Stapler

Senco’s SKS-L trim stapler is an excellent tool for a number of woodworking applications.

Bosch 1591EVSK 6.4 Amp Barrel Grip Jig Saw

When we first heard of barrel grip jig saws, we were pretty skeptical about the comfort and control they could offer, since we were so accustomed to the typical top-handle design. It really was a genuine surprise to feel the difference. The control is amazing, and cutting scrollwork is an absolute delight with this saw, something we can’t honestly say about most top-handle models. With this design, it almost feels as if the cutter is an extension... 

Bosch 1587AVSP Progressor Top-Handle Jig Saw Kit

Bosch invented the jig saw, and, with their Progressor top-handle model, they’re getting close to perfecting it. The Progressor has a nicely shaped handle, tapered where other saws are not, and a nice rubber grip that lets users (of all hand sizes) steer the tool firmly in hand. (Some toolmakers ignore ergonomics, but not Bosch–and we appreciate it.) The safety mechanism works well with the trigger, and the cut is super smooth. We like...

Bosch 1590EVSK 6.4 Amp Top Handle Jigsaw

It’s a funny thing about jigsaws; most of us tend to reach for another tool in its stead, having had less-than-great experiences with the little beasts. But here comes Bosch’s 1590, and it elevates the outcast jigsaw to the most-wanted list. The first thing we liked about this saw is its heft; it’s beefy, solid and made with that famous Swiss quality. You wrap your hand around the soft, substantial grip, squeeze the ample trigger and the soft-start... 

Porter-Cable BN200A 3/4-Inch to 2-Inch 18 Gauge Brad Nailer

This Porter-Cable 18-gauge, 2-inch brad nailer is a compact, comfortable-to-carry unit that might not offer quite as many extras as other (more expensive) units, but it’s very reliable and does its job well. This nailer shoots standard brads from 3/4 to 2 inches long and has an anodized magazine with a reload indicator. The die-cast aluminum body is lightweight but still very strong, and the handle is comfortable to hold, even over long periods... 

Makita LS1013 Dual Slide Compound 10 Miter Saw Kit

Riding on a horizontal double-rail system, Makita’s 10-inch dual sliding compound miter saw is one smooth operator. Both rails are self-cleaning and slide on linear ball bearings. The horizontal rail design also seems to give this saw some extra stability, a feature we appreciate, especially in a saw that bevels to 45 degrees both ways. Makita’s saw has a vertical grip design with a thumb-activated safety switch and a paddle trigger,...
