Lobo Machinery Corp. - Cabinet Saw TS-1010
Lobo has built a cabinet-style saw with industrial grade features.
Jun 01, 1999
This saw has a cast-iron throat plate, as is found on larger industrial machines, and the fence was the best of those in its price range. But overall, its fit and finish were mediocre. The miter gauge had a flimsy, thin scale that was crudely trimmed. Lobo was unable to replace a part damaged during shipping.
For a full review on this saw, read the June 1999 article from Fine Woodworking magazine, available on the Fine Woodworking Network.

Stanley Powerlock 16-ft. tape measure
With its smooth lock, tough case, compact size, and excellent accuracy, this Stanley tape is perfect for workshop use.
DeWalt 735X Planer
At high speed, the planer works fast and leaves a smooth surface. But the slower, finish speed produces an almost glass-smooth surface. Knife changes are easy.
JessEm Mite-R Excel II Miter Gauge
The gauge has a quick and easy method for fitting the guide bar precisely to your tablesaw’s miter slot. This means the gauge can be recalibrated if necessary for continued accuracy. The face of the protractor head can be adjusted square to the table and also square to the guide bar. This ensures accurate cuts, and it, too, can be readjusted if the need arises. The protractor head has stainless-steel knobs and fittings and high-contrast, easy-to-read white numbers and increments.
