THE INDUSTRY’S MOST INNOV TIVE,

INTUITIVE EXTERIOR WOOD CARE SYSTEM.

Create an Outdoor RetreatThis year, transform your outdoor area into a family retreat ith

an “out-of-the-box” vision, areful planning and he appropriate

tools. First, gather your family together for a brainstorming ession

and arget hat you want to do in your outdoor haven. Next, make

a o-do list f the projects required to make your vision a reality.

Finally, round up the tools nd supplies you need and get to work!

To help you, Woodcraft offers a few suggestions to make your

work easier.

Advice from T mmy Mac: T mmy MacDonald, host of “Rough

Cut -- W odworking with Tommy Mac” on public television, has a

few tips for your outdoor adventure.

“Before you aw a board or drive a screw, make sure you have allthe tools, supplies and plans you need rounded up and ready for

the project at hand, says MacDonald. “Stopping nd starting o

hunt a tool or make a trip to buy materials wastes time and energy

better spent on building. Don’t forget the safety ear nd first id

kit and ork with a partner on the big projects whenever possible.”

Gathering Places: Decks, patios and porches, both open and

enclosed, nvite people to gather for a meal, share conv rsation r

play games.

To start your building projects, use the Bosch 12” Dual Bevel

Miter Saw for your rosscutting chores. The aw’s patented

Axial-Glide System expands horizontal cutting capacity o 14” nd

affords a compact ork pace that saves up t 12”. Make quick

work of buildin a deck or porch floor with the Kreg Deck Jig

that creates a strong wood-to-wood bond with self-tapping crews

that are hidden for a smooth, splinter-free surface. ompatible

with composite eck boards, AC treated lumber, nd native

oftwoods such as redwood, cedar and pressure-treated pine, the

jig comes with Kreg oarse Protec-K te (anti-corrosion) eck

screws hat re sold separately nd can also be used as simple face

screws for a variety of outdoor projects.Add a Pinnacle Three-

Piece Combination quare (blade, quare head and enter finder),

a Woodcraft 6’ tape measure and a selection of HIGHPOINT

stainless steel exterior grade screws to your tool lineup for eneral

measuring, marking and oinery.

Comfortable Furniture: Whether you’re on the deck or on he

lawn, comfortable furniture will enhance your outdoor living

experience. W odcraft offer a ide selection of outdoor furniture

plans, including Adirondack chairs, swings, garden benches,

rockers, picnic ables and benches, arbors nd much more.

For our furniture projects, use the Rockwell BladeRunner, aportable, multipurpose precision cutter that uses an T shank

jigsaw blades to make traight, curv d or controlled cuts, llowing

you to use both hands to guide the material (wood, metal, eramic

tile, aluminum or plastic).The BladeRunner can be wall mounted,

but asily detaches for use at your worksite nd ha a ust port

for ttachment t a shop v cuum for continuous cleanup. To hold

workpieces together, Jor enson ffers its ISD3 Expandable lamp

in 6”, 12”, 18”, 14” and 36” sizes. Tw clamps can be joined to

extend the clamping length by 6”. Use the Festool CSX Lithium-

Ion 10.8V Cordless Drill Driver et for all your rilling and

driving chores, specially in tight paces, dark pots nd corners.

Activity Areas & Secluded Spots: Wooden playground equipment,

game courts, arden benches, rbors, gates and trellises organize

your outdoor living rea for fast-paced lay and quiet relaxation.

For cutting chores on hese varied projects, use the Festool rion

PS 300 EQ Jigsa , a 720-watt tool that cuts 43/4” wooden beams,

3/4” aluminum or 3/8” steel with ease. Electronic Multi-Material

Speed Control provides the correct constant peed for the material

you are awing, which prevents overheating. If you need a econd

pair of ands for large or awkward asks, the Rockwell Ja Stand

can help. The easy-to-use ork upport stand s ideal for holding,

clamping, and feeding large work or sheets f material.

Protect Y ur Projects & Y ur Hands: Ensur a long life for

your outdoor wood projects with OneTime Wood Protector, a

proprietary acrylate resin blend hat penetrates wood, actually

becoming part of the cellular structure, and cures by xposure o

UV radiation. uring requires two dry days with o precipitation.

OneTime s guaranteed to protect ne wood, old wood, or ood

that has had a previous coating removed -- for seven years. To

protect your hands, over them withYGC eneral Utility Gloves.Made of high uality, man-made aterials, he gloves are form-

fitting, lightweight, washable and tough.

To learn more bout these products nd others hat an help you

create your outdoor retreat, visit your local W odcraft store, call

800) 535-4482 r visit www.woodcraft.com.

During Season 2 of “Rough Cut --W odworking with T mmy Mac” on

public television, host T mmy MacDonald shows viewers ow to build

his attractive trellis, perfect for outdoor landscaping.
