August 2002 Tried & Tested On The Mark

The Woodjoy marking/cutting gauge is one of the few gauges that I have seen recently which has a proper reversible cutting blade. In my opinion, a gauge with a proper blade, like this one, is more versatile than those with cutting discs or pins.

August 2002 Online Exclusive A Classic Bowsaw
As you might expect, bowsaw manufacturers are few and far between these days. But for woodworkers who enjoy using hand tools, the bowsaw remains valued even today. So I was interested to learn that Woodjoy Tools has recently begun making them. The key has a neat feature found only occasionally in old bowsaws.

Winter 2002 Tool Review Woodjoy's bow saw

Woodjoy has developed a bow saw that is every bit as good as mine. It too, has all the features needed to do the work a Windsor chairmaker requires.

August 2001 A Square With Extras
The Total Square is one of my favorites. This little square with a 4-in. blade is the perfect size to keep in your shop apron. But it does a lot more than most squares. More than meets the eye. The Woodjoy doesn't just check for squareness. It helps you measure, too.

Spring 2000
Behind the name The Big Shave makes short work of contouring and saddling the front of a shield shaped seat. He also makes a very clever double fenced scratch stock. His seat router replaces the veiner and using it results in a more uniform groove.

Fall 1999 Tool Review: "Woodjoy's chair router and Scratch tool"
This is certainly one of the most elegant scratch stocks ever made. Woodjoy's router must be pretty close to the originals as it does the job just as well.
