Product Review

  • Elegantly Simple Illumination

    With a perforated, spun-metal shade, this pendant light lends dappled light to any room.

  • Wood Siding: Burnt, Brushed, and Burnished

    Pioneer Millworks offers a wide range of finishes in their line of Shou Sugi Ban–a Japanese method for charring wood siding to preserve it.

  • Streamlined Skirtboard

    Boral TruExterior composite skirtboards blend right into the clapboards above and are impervious to water damage.

  • High-Style Column Refrigerator

    This narrow, hard-working refrigerator raises the bar for precision cooling.

  • Hitachi’s NR83A5 Framing Nailer

    This battle-tested nailer still nails it.

  • Skilsaw Super Sawsquatch

    This 16-5/16-in. beam saw can cut a 6x6 in a single pass! Is that overkill or is it just awesome?

  • DeWalt Self-Leveling Rotary Level Features an Easily Seen Laser

    Easy being green: The DW079LG is rated with an indoor-visibility range of 250 ft. and a detector range of 2000 ft.

  • DeWalt’s 60v Saw Is Not Quite Ready for Production Framing

    A very nice piece of gear that would serve many carpenters well. But not in a production-framing environment.

  • More ­Horses for Colt Routers

    There’s a new Bosch Colt on the market, and its variable-speed, soft-start motor has been beefed up.

  • Milwaukee 3-Piece Level Set

    Packed in an intelligently designed nylon carrying case, this three-piece level set includes 2-ft. and 4-ft. box beam levels, and a cast-aluminum torpedo level.
