    Keith,

    Thanks for getting the special offer setup for us. I just placed my order for both items. I like the idea of continuing to work with 8 fingers and 2 thumbs. I think this will help me to do that.

    Thanks Again,
    Jim Guy

    SMC Sale Item Save 20% - Micro Jig GRR-Ripper System

    I ordered another one for my shop. This is really a nice deal and they will get better in the future if our members will suport the program.

    I could put several of these type of bulk buys together every month, but to get the really big discounts we need to buy hundreds of items. A really large order brings with it deep discounts. Those of you who ordered just one GRR-Ripper will order a second as soon as you receive yours in the mail and watch the DVD. That's why I kept this offer active untill January 30th, there is plenty of time for you to make a second order.

    Thanks to all of you who have purchased the GRR-Ripper 200 and the DVD's, your support is really appreciated.

    Let's go people, support the bulk buy program if you want it to grow!

    Questions about grripper

    Keith, Since I dont have the DVD and would want to only place 1 order, could you give a brief explination as to why you recomend 2.

    Also it appears you remove your splitter, or need a very short one. I have a beis. pop in splitter that looks like it would hit the gripper. Is this correct?

    Dave,

    Lets say you are ripping a long board cutting thin strips. You start with both grippers on the board one in front of the other. As you push the board thru the blade you can walk the board by moving the front gripper to the back as you progress thru the rip. This procedure lets you always have one gripper on top of and pushing the stock. Also remember that in most cases the gripper holds both sides of the lumber so the waste side is controlled as well. I think this is what makes the gripper such a great system. The video shows how many cuts can be made much safer and some I wouldn't even attempt the old fashioned way. Cutting thin strips is a breeze. Resawing is another process that is safer and much easier as well.

    I'm not sure about the splitter, I'll have to review the video again and get back to you...I don't use a splitter or kickback pawls so I didn't pay a lot of attention to that portion of the video. I did notice that since the gripper holds both sides of the stock there is less chance of the lumber closing behind the blade.

    I can ask Henry if it would be OK to post a couple of pictures from the video, I know it would be very helpfull. I've watched it several times and each time I learned something new.

    I just checked the MicroJig web site and they suggest removing a splitter if it is installed. They have lots of pictures on their site of the gripper being used for routing as well as on band saws and joiners.

    Grripper is great!

    I have bought two of these during the past year and love them. Yes Keith, you have to remove the splitter, but it is even safer than doing a dado cut. I love it for 1/8" and 1/4" rips on small boards (cutting splines or small laminations). They are really great on the router table too. Much smoother cuts with no divots at the end of a pass.

    That's odd. . .

    I already have two of the grippers, so I was thinking of ordering the DVD. If you order for the reduced price via Keith's link, $4.00 is added to the 7.95 price. If you just go to Microjig's site via the regular route, the cost is $9.95 with no shipping. Doesn't make a lot of sense, does it? Tony
