Woodrat: Any opinions?

[JimThomasson]

Out of curiosity, I ordered the Woodrat DVD and have enjoyed watching it. I seem to remember that one of you guys over in Raleigh has one.

It looks interesting but $800 for a "jig" is a lot of "sawdust"!

Do any of you have experience using a Woodrat, and if so, is it worth the investment?

Whom I like very much. :icon_thum
I would say get in touch with Joe Scharle http://www.ncwoodworker.net/forums/members/joe-scharle/
I know he has one and is very proficient in its use.

Jim,

You may want to send David Norby (Nativespec) a pm. He owned one and I think he's looking to sell it. If he doesn't have it anymore, I'm sure that he could at least tell you about it.

I've had a Woodrat for about 3 years now and wouldn't be without it. I'll be happy to demo it for you. Also, the 'Router Boss' was just announced and I expect some used Woodrats will be on the market soon.

Thanks Dave,
