After looking at both units, it seemed that having the steel bit guides encased in plastic on the Kreg model, and cast aluminum on the Sommerfeld, there was no question that the Sommerfeld unit was going to be a much more stable and longer-lasting platform. Along with the fact that it's less expensive than the Kreg with the same accessories made the decision to get the Sommerfeld a no-brainer.

I would not say its a remarkabe difference but yes, I do think this stuff is abit better than the regular. I found that the odor now takes longer to be noticable and its not so strong. Good price also.

I can't answer that question because I don't know about the other product. But I know the Kneading one and I am satisfied with it. It worked well and I tihink you will not find better item on the market.

I have used the Kreg screws and other screws from another supplier. They work well. McFeeley's sells the same type.

Absolutely. The Kreg Deck Jig is great for building decks and hiding the screws. I would recommend using some scrap first to get the hang of installing the deck boards. That way when you actually start on the deck proper you will have the technique down pat.

The stem is a 1/2" bolt with a truss head nut. I don't know about the Kreg stand. These casters are great they lock both wheel and swiwel pretty tight.

both are probably decent, generic versions may be made with cheaper metals. Klean kanteen tends to be thicker and higher quality for long term use. The ones given out might be just as nice though.

I don't know the answer to this question, but I used both an Ergo and the BBII and I chucked my Ergo once I tried the BBII. IMO it's worlds better. See my review for why.

It's all about the plate. You should be able to check the specs on the Kreg site, but i would be shocked if they didn't offer a pre-drilled version of the plate that fit the Dewalt router. Failing that, you could always drill the plate yourself from the blank one they give you.

"Perform Better" is a retailer. Check thestick.com for more info. All "thestick" products are the same from the same manufacturer.

The bit and collar are the same for all Kreg products. For thicker material, you start drilling higher on the material as positioned by the jig.

It's not recommended that you use reg wood screws with this type of application. Generally because the screw itself, no matter the power of your drill, will most likely split through the hole you've made with the jig. You don't necessarily have to use Kreg specific pocket screws, but a pocket screw none the less, is definitely the best way to go.

Between this one and Gethsemani, the Gethsemani is a little more boozy and, in my opinion, a little better quality. This one sticks together a little better and is much less cost-prohibitive.

I returned this item and bought the Wahl through Hammacher Schlemmer, instead. Better product.

Hi Lilz, I'll be very honest with you and short - you can't compare them. I was a bit disappointed with the quality of these EcoTools bushes. I bought them for my cousin daughter as a starting set. Real technique is much better quality ale they are easily to wash and dry and much silken.

You can use the standard Kreg jig for 1/2 inch material but the bit removes so much wood that it leaves a fairly weak joint the micro with a smaller bit removes less wood leaves behind a stronger joint also even on three-quarter inch or larger material the micro leaves a smaller hole and can get into smaller spaces so if you're going to fill in the holes to make them disappear it's easier with the micro you're ending up with a smaller hole so it's easier to hide
