New workshop buying and storage guides
Manufacturer sources checked 14 October 2026. Compare exact tool identities, scale markings, set contents and storage configurations.
BESSEY KRE60-2K: distinguish opening from throat before ordering
Keep KRE60-2K’s opening and throat as separate buying fields and tie the order code to the actual project questions.
Kreg Multi-Mark KMA2900: keep units and layout functions distinct
Evaluate KMA2900 using a named layout task and explicit units; feature positions and a nominal range do not establish accuracy.
Starrett C11H-12-4R: match the graduation code to the workshop drawings
Keep Starrett’s C11H-12-4R code, BH222 identifier and fractional-inch graduation pattern together when requesting a tool quote.
Festool SYS3 M 187: compare inner space, not the height in the name
Use SYS3 M 187 interior dimensions and the insert contents separately from the case’s outside dimensions in a storage plan.
INCRA RULDM10: check decimal-inch slot spacing against the dimensions in your plan
RULDM10 offers documented decimal-inch and millimetre intervals; compare those intervals with the drawing instead of treating every value as directly guided.
Woodpeckers TS-12-20: distinguish scribing-guide spacing from shelf-pin hole centres
The default TS-12-20 listing describes two hole patterns; retain diameter, centre spacing and purpose rather than treating every opening as a drill guide.
FastCap PSSP Story Pole: a writable blade edge needs a project record, not an assumed permanent scale
PSSP has a documented blank note edge as well as factory measurements; identify project marks separately and preserve the authoritative drawing elsewhere.
Veritas 05N6106 and 05N6108: distinguish a two-marker pair from the separate 14-degree option
The 05N6106 pair and 05N6108 option answer different angle requests; a family photograph does not put every pictured marker into one package.
Wera Bit-Check 30 Wood 1: thirty pieces do not mean thirty different screw profiles
The 30-piece set includes a holder and repeated PH, PZ and TORX sizes; count unique required profiles separately from total pieces when comparing offers.
