Bosch 2607001312 Leg Extension for Digital Protractor/Angle Finder Review

Bosch 2607001312 Leg Extension for Digital Protractor/Angle Finder
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
At first when I ordered this, I thought it was for longer pieces of work. It is actually for shorter pieces. This is an add on for the Bosch Digital Protractor. What this extension allows you to do is extend it just a little bit, or as much as you need, not off the end of the leg, but rather BACK OVER THE ELBOW OF THE UNIT, to measure the angle of something that may be only 3 or 4 inches in length. By extending it the short distance, getting the angle, then deducting it from 180 degrees you can get an accurate measurement. The instructions that come with it, show you a picture of someone who is outside,holding the protractor against a wall, and extending the extension backwards across the knee to get the slope measurement of an outside window sill plate.
Anyhow, it is an infrequently used item for your Bosch Digital Protractor, but it does come in handy for the shorter pieces, and for the price it is a worthwhile addition. Hope this was helpful.

Factory-Reconditioned Ryobi ZRDS11008 Detail Sander Review

I agree with the other two reviewers of this item. This product doesn't even deserve one star.
I purchased this sander for refinishing the wood windows in our family room. The Ryobi palm sander I already own worked great for the larger flat spots, but I was looking for something smaller to get into the tighter places. When I turned on this detail sander the vibration was felt more in my hand than on the end that held the sand paper. Needless to say it really didn't do anything over what I could have done with a sanding block in my hand. I haven't used it past the first 30 seconds I had it on and went back to the Ryobi palm sander and oven cleaner to take the remaining paint off. I will be returning this Detail sander back to the store!

Bosch 1640VS Finecut 3.5 Amp Power Handsaw Review

I really like this tool. It has a somewhat narrow range of applications. I wouldn't bother trying to use it to rip stock nor would I want to use it to do a lot of cross-cutting of 1" hardwood stock. Get a table saw and miter saw if you have those applications in mind.
What it excels at it is cutting trim stock. I've used it quite a bit to remodel some bathrooms in my house. As someone else mentioned, it's a life-saver when it comes time to undercut door jamb trim for fitting tile (or any other kind of retro-install flooring, like Pergo). After trying several other options (Fein multi-master, handcut), I was so happy to discover this Bosch saw. It made an otherwise unpleasant chore much easier. I would say that it paid for itself in this one task. It's also good for fitting trim stock in tight/unusual spaces (notching moulding around other millwork or fixtures). Gives a much better cut than a recip/jig saw.
I haven't had any problem with dull blades. I also have seen them for sale at the local orange big box home improvement store.
