Hi
Was wondering if anyone in the lothians(East Lothian preferably) had a woodrat that they could let me see and possibly demonstrate before i buy.
Many thanks

Hi,
I have a woodrat. It has plus and minus points.
There are discussions on their merits or otherwise on here.

Try this website, there is a yankee version which is better as it has digital
gauges for it.
I have seen a router table with Incra fences which is just as versatile.!

Hi Thanks guys, seen the videos on youtube, very helpfull but nothing like seeing the real thing before you buy.

I find the opposite (sort of).

In "person demos" aren't conducive to considered thought.

Any skilled demonstrator will do an excellent job of emphasising the strengths and not (doh!) mentioning weaknesses or omissions. Spotting an omission is HARD.

The prime advantage of hands-on in in checking ergonomics/handling.
