Customer Review:

not bad

These work allright but aren't the best made guide bushings out there. They're made up of 2 pieces pressed together kind of like a rivet. They're ok, but not heavy duty. The Porter Cable type guide bushings are a little beefier & made with thicker metal. What I ended up using was just the PC adapter (available by itself at any wood working store), a set of PC guide bushings (available anywhere) & a centering pin. Make sure to close the lever tight on the Bosch template adapter, otherwise it can move around & the bit won't be centered in the bushing. Personally I find these reviews very helpful & want to say thanks to the people who write them. They can definitely save us some time, money & headaches. If you have an opinion on a product I encourage you to put it in writing. Happy wood working!!

Don't forget the PC Adapter!

This is a great set of the most common sized template guides. They come in a nice, sturdy case that has room for 3 extra guides should you buy another size. What's great about these adapters is that they snap into your Bosch router - quick and easy and they stay in place.

However, the REAL selling point of this guide set is that it comes with the RA1100 threaded guide adapter. This adapter allows you to use Porter-Cable template guides in a Bosch Router. Many reviewers complain when they buy a PC dovetail jig or inlay kit that comes with a PC template guide, that it doesn't fit in their router...One guy hemmed and hawed that he had to create a custom baseplate for his Bosch router so that he could use his PC template guide! There's an easier way! It's the RA1100. It too snaps into the router just like a template guide, but it's slot is just the right size to fit threaded guides from PC. It's the ultimate in versatility.
Great guide set, but the PC adapter makes it a must own.

simple template changes

I have recently purchaed a Bosch router and love it. It came with the adapter for these templates and they make changing different sizes a snap. No locking collar, just essentially snap them in and your ready to do dovetails, follow patterns, etc.

Customer Review:

Both sizes very usefull...

We bought this set for building a deck and we found that both sizes were very usefull in the project. They are very high quaility and sturdy - will last forever.

Even Better Than Before

The construction on these is superb and they mean it when they say non-marring. I have always used cheaper levels, having to flip them end to end to double check measurements and finally got too frustrated and splurged. I don't regret it one bit. I purchased the 16"/48" set and have come up short a few times though, so this new longer set sure would be nice.

59" is weird, but what a smart idea!

When I first saw this level in Amazon.com catalog, I thought it was a misprint. I mean who buys a 59" level, what design engineer suggested this? Well I bought the set since I have most of the other Stabila levels and it was offered at a great sale price of $99 for the set. Once I got this set, I discovered WHY the 59". FIrst of all, it spans 4 studs (on 16's), and have you noticed how big windows are nowadays? It's not like the old double hung windows, you need a 5' level (59" so it fits in a 5' opening). This level is comfortable to use because it is within your arm span and not over your height. If it were longer, it would be bouncing off headers and other openings as you walk though the job. It is the right length and has replaced my 4' Stabila as my "default" level. I grab the 59" level first and use it the most. Kudo's to that ballzy German engineer who brought this idea to the boss.

Customer Review:

A great set of accessories at a nice price.

I just received my super accessory kit and I found the product at finest quality I could imagine, at a very decent price. I prefer to buy this product over buying individual tools as it
costs much much lower.

cheaper at homedepot.com

Homedepot.com has this for $19.97

Nice assortment, but crappy case

If you've got a Dremel tool, but too few bits, this is the set to have. This set really gives you the most for your money, as compared to the other, smaller, Dremel bit sets.

That said, I should point out that the case really sucks. I like stuff to be in (roughly) rectangular boxes for ease of storage. This case has a handle, which is nifty, but protrudes a few inches above the case. This means you can't stack anything above it.

Also, the poor design of the lids means they won't open all the way, nor will they stay open unles you pry them up with the blue inserts. If you pry the blue inserts up, you risk spilling the contents.

Oh, and this can be had at the "Wal" place for twenty pesos.

Customer Review:

Works Great

Everything just as I was expecting. Easy to put together.
Weed trimmer works great, even on thick grass, just a little slower and it works better for edging than my old gas trimmer. Would have been 5 stars except it takes 2 full batteries to do a typical "larger" front and back family yard. having 3 batteries was a BIG selling point for me, as I can do Edging one day, then blow away the trimmings and Hedge the next day.
Blower works good, not as powerfull as our electric, but adequate for the job.
Hedge trimmer works very well and 1 battery lasts long enough to complete all the hedges in front of the house.
For the $ you can't beat this set. Very Light and Easy to handle everything. My only complaint is the lack of battery run time with weed trimmer and also the blower.
I think as long as I don't let the yard work go too long, battery run time will work OK.

Great item

These tools are fantastic. I agree that they aren't the most powerful items on the planet, but they get the job done. They pack a good punch with a fully charged battery, and since there are 3 batteries, I haven't had to worry about running out of charge. The blower is strong enough for driveway sweeping, but I don't see it being very effective for whole yeard cleaning. The string trimmer is the main reason I bought this, and it hasn't let me down. The automatic feeder is great, no moure bouncing and prying to get the line fed correctly. And it has cut through everything I've put in front of it. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone.

FINALLY...BETTER THAN EXPECTED

We ordered the 18 volt Lawncare Center with some trepidation. WE've had good luck with the bigger Black & Decker cordless gear, like the mulching mower but - even with a relatively small yard, the smaller stuff didn't ast long...but...we took a shot. What a treat. First of all, the install...common sense, straight ahead and logical. The battery station and tool hangers go right up, very neat,thank you and on the wall and out of the way. Amazingly convenient...as is having three batteries on hand at any time. Sring Trimmer, Hedge Trimmer and Broom all more than enough power. ergonomically on target and get the job done...and at a bargain price. The CCC3000 now joins our Black and Decker 24 Volt lawnmower as an indispensible part of yard care.
