Woodworking Tools and Accessories You Might Need!
This post is sponsored by The Home Depot.
In this blog, we are doing a HUGE haul! We are going to be sharing some really cool tools and accessories that you might need! This list is full of items for literally anyone in this maker field, mostly woodworking tools and accessories, but so much more! So, sit back, relax and let's get to the good stuff.
Husky Pro Mobile Office
First up is a good ole organizer. The Husky Pro Mobile Office is great for on the go folks. Maybe you're a contractor, maybe you do a lot of home client work, whatever the case, this is the ultimate pack. Let's start with the outside. The molded top is the perfect size for your notebook or clipboard with the raised edges to keep items from falling off. The entire bag is water-resistant 1680 denier material to withstand tough conditions. Then moving down you've got your tape measure clip, pen pockets, velcro closed pocket, and water bottle holders. On the inside, you have all the slots for files and folders on one half. The other half is open to anything else you need with you for a consultation, or whatever job you are off to. Dimensions of this organizer is 12.5 in X 16 in X 14.5 in. For all your tools and things safety, the zippers are lockable to secure the main compartment for theft prevention.
A really underrated tool is a good square. We have had the same 2 ever since we started making and building. The Husky 7" Extendable Roofing Square is really a no brainer. It starts at measuring 6 inches and extends to 12 inches with the collapsible arm for working with larger lumber. We really love the notches at all the 1/4" marks. It makes getting the exact measurement super easy. You would think something like this would be just a little heavy, but as it is made out of aluminum it's super light without sacrificing durability.
Husky 7pc Dual Direction Extraction Socket Set SAE
Another thing for your woodworking tools and accessories list, ever had a stuck, rusted, or stripped bolt? Did you use some pliers, and then an hour later you still have a stuck bolt and a headache? Maybe you got the bolt off, but will this happen again? Probably. Go ahead and grab this $20 Dual Direction Extraction Socket Set to help you out! The tapered entry enables socket to easily seat on to a damaged fastener, but also for the bolt not to get stuck inside. These have a bi-directional design for removing or tightening a damaged fastener. This also allows for the reuse of the damaged bolt if need be. These sockets have a square drive with a hex base so it can be used with any compatible tool you have like an impact gun, ratchet, wrench or pliers. This set is also available in metric!
Diablo Blades
First off, we always, always use Diablo blades on all of our saws. They have proven to be the best for us. The 24 tooth blade is the most common in our shop for circular saws to break down lumber accurately. We also love the thin kerf of the blade that allows a faster cut. I'm not exactly sure how often you're supposed to change your blade out, but these last us a very long time, probably because of the tri-metal shock-resistant brazing.
If you have a smaller saw, Diablo still has you covered with this 5 1/2" x 18 Tooth blade. You can pair this blade with 1/2 in., 5/8 in., 10 mm and 20 mm cordless saws. Even more specific, it is compatible with Makita (5/8 in. arbor), Black and Decker (1/2 in. arbor), Ryobi (10 mm arbor), Porter Cable (10 mm arbor) and Craftsman (10 mm arbor). This guy is mainly for on the job, construction type environments by being ideal for hardwoods, softwoods, 2X lumber, pressure-treated lumber, OSB, plywood and laminated beams.
