Grrr-Ripper GR100

I was wandering around my local Lowes today and they had the Grrr-Ripper GR100 on clearance for $39.99 from $59.99.  I was weak and bought one.

What is it?

Sorry, it is a adjustable push block system for woodworking. Primarily used with the table saw.

If you want to be even weaker I’ll suggest you go buy another.. with two you can leap frog them down your work piece so the board never has to stop.. that will help with blade marks and bruning. I don’t use them all the time but when I do I’m really glad to have them. They are also great for pushing material across a router table.

Haha, do it.. do it.. do it!!!

Picked up two of these the other day. Seem pretty handy. Well built. Nice design. I picked both up for $45 total.

I just grabbed one today too. Going to go with my DW745 so I can keep my fingers! How the heck else would I type these things in my iPad?!?!?!??

don’t you have an app on the ipad to push wood?

i had one but i miscalculated and cut the thing in half oops!!

Nah that app is on my iPhone 6+

My iPad is more for carnal enjoyment, ie. Tool porn 🙂

You know…,Festool….Milwaukee…..Dewalt…..Makita…..Miss Makita…..;)

Anytime my friend… anytime!!! 🙂

ya those grrrriper come in handy, I have to grab some too one day

That’s a good price for that. I have one, wouldn’t be a bad idea to have two of them like you said. Expensive push blocks though. 

Ya you can build those pushblocks yourself

I was hesitant when it was $59.00 but still had to think about it before I even spent $39.00.

I put mine together today. Man a billion little pieces!

the price on those griiiiipppers are valid until mid march, time to think about it lol

I went by Lowes and they have the little version on sale for $19. I think that one would have been fine for my little saw.
