Thread: Woodpeck router gear from woodpeck.com

Just imported a bunch of stuff for the router table that I am building.
Id already bought a ProRouter Table Top Type C and needed to buy the rest of the gear like a aluminium insert, a couple of tracks, a fence and other bits and pieces (brackets, stops, knobs, etc...). i.e.: Parts that I though I needed to get so I have the best precision.
I tried to source some Woodpecker gear in Australia, but woodpeck.com in the US was by far the cheapest. Even after you add the shipping etc... (There were no taxes)

Just a few points for those who might do the same thing (buy from woodpeck.com) and take advantage of the strong Aussie dollar.

1) Do not buy any Incra gear from them (unless that is all you buy). You dont see it, but you pay TWICE for shipping since they DO NOT hold any incra stock, thus you pay for shipping from the Incra factory too. You can see this by mucking around with the shopping basket and looking at the shipping prices attached to the basket. (They also state it in fine print somewhere too)

2) Once, shipped the products arrived in about 4 days - with signature and tracking. I used USP Priority Shipping, which was the cheapest. (I don't think that the more expensive shipping methods would be much faster)

3) Add the basket items from smallest parts to largest. Why? you ask... Well, again while mucking around with the shopping basket I found that their auto shipping calculator gave a better rate (even up to $40 to $50 cheaper) by doing this. Sounds silly, but that is the way it was.

4) I haven't tested the parts I just got in the workshop, but the Woodpecker parts look great. They are solid, professional and for now would buy them again. (Love the 24" super track - which I will use for my fence.)

5) I have no affiliation with Woodpecker, but I always let people know If I find a good deal.

Well, I hope this helps. Keep praying that the Aussie dollar stays high, and lets go shopping.
