Gift Ideas for the Woodworker!

November 14, 2016 by Bethany Sy

Nick and I sat down and put together this list of handy woodworker gift ideas, gadgets and tools that make our building projects easier and more fun when we’re rocking out in the woodshop! Shopping for the woodworker in your life doesn’t HAVE to mean expensive power tools… we’re here to debunk that misconception!

Digital Angle Gauge – This little gadget measures angles… for setting blades on the table saw, miter saw, drill press, etc! Just press it against the blade or bit, and the magnetic properties keep it in place and tells you the exact angle digitally!

We hope you’re inspired to get building! And be sure to add these gadgets to your wish list, or your shopping list for the woodworker in your life! Sometimes it’s the little things… am I right?! I love that every one of these things are stocking sized, but pack a big punch when it comes to usefulness in the wood shop. Happy shopping!
