1. Universal Small Port Hose Kit
Woodworkers have struggled for years to connect many varieties of handheld power tool ports to dust collection systems. This new system fits them all, featuring an expandable shop vacuum hose with flexible rubber port to connect to virtually any handheld power tool.
2. Bandy Clamp Edge Clamps
The versatility of these clamps will have dad exploring the entire house, yard, and garage to find every use for them. With soft pads, flex-jaws, and an extremely flexible yet durable rubber band, Bandy Clamp holds many shapes and sizes. These clamps are simply a must-have for any woodworker or DIYer.
3. Centipede Sawhorse
This collapsible frame sets up and tears down in seconds (much like a camping chair,) yet the lattice-style frame holds up to 1,500 lbs. Adding a flat top makes a quick, portable workstation.
4. Bench Cookie Plus Master Kit
From finishing and painting to holding a board in place for routing or sanding, this kit contains rubberized gripping pucks and accessories to add a little height and a lot of stability under various workpieces. The ultimate DIY accesory kit for dad!
5. DIY Speaker Kits
Experience DIY fidelity by building custom speaker cabinets. These kits include all of the speaker and wiring components, leaving the look of the cabinets up to the builder. This is the perfect project for the music-loving dad who likes to build.
6. CNC Piranha: The Ultimate Toy for Dad
A dream machine for the gadget lover or anyone who likes to be creative with computer designs, woodworking or best of all, both! DIYers create a programmed computer image for the CNC to carve, then hit start and watch as the image becomes a carving. Accurate, computerized cutting delivers finely detailed results. This is a gift any dad will never forget.
7. Gyroscopic Screwdriver Kit with Free Work Light
This twist in powered screwdriver technology is a welcome addition to any home or shop. A flick of the wrist changes this driver from forward to reverse and increases speed in either direction. The free work light adds another dimension to this gift.
8. Glue Application Master Set
This set covers just about any glue application need. Highlights include a versatile silicone brush, a roller for covering large areas, and a mortise tip for mortises and biscuit slots. Dried glue flakes off, making cleanup a snap.
9. Dust Separator with Free $20 Gift Card
With a 10-gallon capacity, the Separator captures sawdust, wood chips, and other debris before it enters the vacuum, preventing the loss of suction power caused by a clogged vacuum filter. Includes a free $20 Rockler Gift Card for dad to spend!
10. SawStop 10" Jobsite Saw
The first ever fully portable table saw equipped with SawStop's famous safety brake technology. Folding legs make this unit convenient for garage use and compact storage.
"This list is sure to please any dad who is a do-it-yourselfer," says Steve Krohmer, Rockler's Vice President of Product Marketing. "Shoppers will find many great gift ideas for the dad who seems to have everything and seems to do everything himself."
