The new industrial
CMT
Entry and Passage Door Set (# 800.527.11) offers
production quality and versatility of function lacking
in existing DIY entry door sets.
In order to produce an entry or passage door (1 3/8" or
1 3/4" thick), one cutter is used to cut the long grain
profile on all of the parts. A second cutter is used to
cope the ends of the rails to match the long grain cut.
Because entry and passage doors demand a large tenon for
a lifetime of strength, CMT includes a third bit in the
set that is specifically designed for cutting tenons. No
other door kit includes such a bit! To cut the mortise
in the door stiles, a bench top mortise machine, drill
press or a plunge router with the CMT #191.507.11 up cut
solid carbide spiral bit can be utilized. $299.

Steel City Tool Works Delivers First Granite Top Cabinet
Saw |
The National Support Element of Roto 3-07 for the ‘Van Doos’ and
presently serving in Afghanistan. This is Mike’s attachment from
Valcartier PQ, taken while in training at Wainright AB, May
2007.
Mike with the Steel City Team
Mike with his new SCTW jacket and SCTW cabinet saw |
When Mike Lesperance read Canadian Woodworking’s coverage on
Steel City Tool’s granite-topped cabinet saw, he knew that was
the machine he wanted when he was done his tours of duty in
Afghanistan.
Lesperance’s career is the navy, and he is signed up for another
tour, but in between tours he was scheduled for a home visit to
Ottawa.
Knowing when he was going to be in Ottawa, Mike contacted the
Ottawa Woodshow promoters to confirm that Steel City would be at
their show, and, if they were to be there, would they have the
granite-topped cabinet saw there to see first hand.
It turned out that Mike attended the show, met the guys from
Steel City, and loved their new line of machines. As a result,
Mike has ordered, and will receive, the very first
granite-topped cabinet saw available in Canada.
As a special 'thank-you' to Mike, for his commitment and effort
on our behalf in Afghanistan, Jim McEntee (VP/Canada) presented
Mike with a Steel City Tool jacket. |
