  • Versatile Vise
    Great Gear Versatile vise Whether cutting dovetails or trimming tenons, I’ve got a great setup for joinery work with the solid maple Moxon vise from Lake Erie Toolworks. As shown in the photo, the rear jaw extends beyond the movable front jaw to facilitate quick, solid clamping to your workbench. The vise screws turn smoothly, and their faceted handles make it easy to clamp workpieces securely. Depending on the project, I might clamp the vise to my workbench or assembly table to position the work right where it’s needed. But the portability doesn’t end there. The lightweight vise totes easily for working in different shops. My smaller “Lite” version (shown) accommodates 14"-wide boards. The full-sized version, available at Woodcraft, has a clamping capacity of 24". Lake Erie Toolworks Moxon Vise —Chad McClung, chief editor #427359, $219.99 60 Prices subject to change without notice.

  • Trouble Shooting Guide & How to Replace Cutter And
    TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE & HOW TO REPLACE CUTTER AND GEARS OF JAKAR 5151 ELECTRIC PENCIL SHARPENER Although the original components have been factory fitted using special tooling no special skills are required to perform these basic tasks. Should you have any difficulties please do not hesitate to contact us for assistance. Your statutory rights remain unaffected. IMPORTANT ALWAYS DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM MAINS BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING TASKS. PLEASE PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO STEP 3 REGARDING THE SMALL SPRING UNDER THE SECTION ‘REMOVING THE MOTOR’ POSSIBLE REASONS WHY YOUR MACHINE MAY HAVE STOPPED WORKING. 1. BROKEN SHAVING TRAY - Ensure that the small plastic ‘nib’ at the rear of the shaving tray is intact. This is a safety device without which the machine will not operate. If it breaks, replacement trays are available. 2. OVERHEATING -The machine has a built-in devise to prevent the motor from overheating. If, after continuous use within a relatively short period of time, the machine stops working, this is probably because the overheating device has been activated. Allow the machine to cool for at least 30 minutes after which the motor should re-set. 3. PIECE OF LEAD LODGED IN THE CUTTER AREA: Should a piece of lead breaks off from the tip of the pencil and becomes lodged in the cutter area this may cause the small metal ‘stop plate’ to the rear of the cutter to ‘think’ that a pencil is still inserted. The machine will therefore no longer turn. This is to prevent over sharpening. The piece of lead may not be visible until the motor is removed from the outer casing.
