New from EZ – The Bridge

Burts | Posted in Tools for Home Building on February 16, 2007 05:30am

Several of you fellows follow the development of the EZ stuff.  Since Dino  can’t post on this forum, I thought I’d pass this on.

 Two short video’s

Thanks for looking.

Also notice that Dino is using a Worm drive saw.  Because of improvements to the left hand bases they are now available to everyone!!

      I think you are correct.

      Yeah, that's Dino.  I met him a while ago when he was encouraging everyone to come over to his shop (Edison, NJ) for a demo on D-mix (as he calls it).  He's an enthusiastic, energetic guy who genuinely believes in his products (D-mix isn't a product, it's a technique) and isn't a pushy salesperson at all.  I miss his posts.

          Oh yeah.  I knew that (but forgot).

    Why can't he post here?

    1. rez | Feb 16, 2007 07:10pm | #8

      I believe that it is not that he can't post here but that he as the creator/owner is not permitted to speak of anything even remotely connected to the EZ Guide system

      and as such has elected to voice himself in other forums instead.

      If you have ever met Dino he is the EZGuide system heart, mind and soul and one can understand his dedication taking him elsewhere where he is wanted.

      be I at least sure hope that is the way it is

      be is

       

      is today Saturday?

      1. nikkiwood | Feb 17, 2007 03:31am | #10

        Taken as a whole, the collection of Dino's posts on EZ constituted "advertising" in the eyes of the Taunton folks.And I am guessing they were uneasy about the precedent for other entrepreneurs. Pat Warner is frequent contributor at Knots about anything related to routers, even though he is in the business of selling all sorts of aftermarket widgets and gismos. He gets away with it because he never flogs any of his products, he just provides a link to that part of his web site that speaks to the poster's query/problem.http://patwarner.com/********************************************************

          I personally found Dinos comments to be far les commercial than Pats. Pat posts a link to his $300 mortising jig in nearly every motise question that arises.

      Mike.

       Video A.     4 "cut to size" strips are done under 20 seconds.

      Video B.      4 tapered strips are done under 20 seconds.

      The Bridge is a new tool concept.
