Contact Derek Roff at 269-5738 for information.

The AWA-owned tools are:

Bridge City Tools Angle Master
This tool will aid in cutting angles with great precision- to 
hundredths of a degree (e.g. 11.25 degrees). It works with a 
tablesaw and other tools

Lignomat Moisture Meter
This pin-type moisture meter will give an indication of the 
moisture in a piece of wood. Excessive moisture will cause many 
problems, including rot, fungal stain, and increased insect risk. 
Unbalanced moisture content in different boards within a project will 
lead to cracks, warping and gaps. A moisture meter can help avoid 
these problems.

Binks Mach 1 SL spray gun w/4 gallon Campbell-Hausfield portable compressor
This HVLP finishing spray gun is effective for applying stains and 
clear finishes/topcoats. The compressor is small and luggable in one 
hand, although heavy. It provides adequate air flow for smaller 
projects. For larger, higher speed application of finish, the Binks 
gun could be used with a larger compressor.

Wizard Metal Detector
This hand held device is very handy for finding nails and other stray bits of metal in your
rough/salvaged stock. It can save you a great deal of time and trouble (not to mention
potential damage to your blades/knives).  It's available for checkout by any member for
short periods (depending on demand).
