I’ve seen these on youtube, but I haven’t heard them talked about much. What are these personalized medallion coins woodworkers place in their pieces called, and where can they be found? Because I can’t draw worth a crap I’m going to have a nice logo designed and I don’t mind spending some cash on these little boogers. I’m sure they’ll pay for themselves. I’d like to find someone who can make the coins at a level of complexity shown in this one..

DeWalt DWE6423 5-in. Random Orbit Sander
- Stock removal was poor - Dust collection was near the bottom without a vacuum, but very solid with one - Roomy waist leaves plenty of options for gripping
Delta 26‑2251 Miter Saw
The Delta was another model that you can locate close to a wall. It employs dual articulating arms that save space while yielding good, wide cuts provided you use good technique. The saw is tied for the second-shortest overall footprint. The Delta’s ergonomics were a treat too. Thanks to convenient placement and ease of use, the locks for the miter and bevel stops were superb. Its LED results in a nice, accurate shadow. The dust collection was just slightly lower than the Makita’s, but still quality for a miter saw.

- Clamp Throat Depth: 2-3/8" - Clamp Capacity: 0 to 5-1/4" - Clamp Pressure: 595 lb. open at 4" - Minimum Dovetail Slot Length: 3-3/4" - Dovetail Profile for Clamp: 1/2" x 14°
Ridgid R4251 Miter Saw
The Ridgid R4251 was a pleasant surprise. It uses two articulating arms to let it sit against a wall. The mechanism had me skeptical, but it performed excellently. The controls are conveniently placed and easy to use. The bevel and tilt locks for working off of the stops were my favorite of the field. Its LED results in a nice, accurate shadow.
Bessey K-Body Parallel-Jaw Clamp
The 3 3/4" deep parallel jaws allow for all types of clamping, from thin panels to joinery.
