I am wondering where the most reasonable place is to buy t-track for mu workbench. I have a budget and it seems the the prices vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and web site to web site. I do not have any wood working stores in the area I live and usually have to rely on local lumber yards and hardware stores or I can drive a short distance (still considered local) and go to a big box store (Menards, Home Depot, Lowes) for my project supplies and tools so I would have to buy online and have it shipped. Any help would be great.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Another very useful t-track, I use---
http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?page=22075&site=ROCKLER
great tool for many applications---
can be clamped to almost any work surface---
I keep one ''at-the-ready'', for many tasks---routing, sawing, cutting, chiseling, clamping, drilling, sanding, and the like.
Lots of clamping pressure can be applied, with this track.
This track can be mounted permanent or portable.
This is a very handy ''t-track hold down'',

for use with the above mention t-track, as well as several other tracks, on today's market.
Rick,
Here is a photo of the bench-dog dual track---

Hi Rick,
The hole spacing, in the Bench-Dog dual-track is on 6'' BC, in the miter track portion---not in the ''t-track portion.
A 1/2'' dia ctr sink bit will fit in the 3/4'' track........./p>
Here's a photo, and info, of a ''hand countersink'' tool,
I made reference to in an earlier post, above.
http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?page=1146&site=ROCKLER
The newer (current) models feature 5-6 cutting edges.
The ''hex shank'' feature can be inserted in a magnetic hex driver bit,
for ''quick-change'', when used in hand drill/driver, drill press, or the like.
The 1/2'' dia size, can be machined down to a 5/16'' dia, so as to fit into the narrow slot of a t-track, for making countersink holes, and insert flathead screws from the top-side,
to permanently affix a t-track in place.
Works for me.
Ken, thanks for all the helpful info, appreciate it.

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.
First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…

Several months ago, I purchased the Kreg K4MS so that I could build the Lego Table as outlined on the companion "buildsomething" web site which exclusively uses pocket hole construction. I have considerable experience with conventional…
