Castle USA 110 Pocket Cutter
Castle USA has introduced the Castle 110 Pocket Cutter, a highly portable, adjustable, easy to use, and affordable machine. It was developed to provide a more accessible solution for making professional, low angle, highly stable, pocket joints. The Castle 110 creates low, 3-degree pockets which minimize joint shifts, or “joint creep,” particularly when compared to other pocket hole joinery solutions.
Glyn Phillips, Castle USA’s general manager, says that, “The Castle 110 Pocket Cutter provides smaller woodworking shops, hobbyists, and DIYers with the same, superior ‘Castle Low Angle Pocket’ for minimizing joint shift as our bigger, more commercial machines.” Phillips adds, “Our founder, Max Durney, has been working on getting our pocket hole technology into the hands of everyday woodworkers for quite some time, and the Castle 110 does that while being affordable, portable, and easy-to-use.”
