MICROJIG GRR-RIPPER GR-200 Advanced Adjustable Table Saw Pushblock, Yellow

I fell in love with this the first time I used it. It is flat out AMAZING. It's one of those things where I wonder how the heck i got along without it. This improves cut accuracy, stability, as SAFETY. You get a nice, solid grip on the wood that yields an amazing amount of control. No more worrying about fingers because your hands are on the block itself, with the saw blade going through the "tunnel." I needed to trim a piece of wood to 1.5" x 1.5" and my chop saw was buried at the time - I used this and my table saw to do it. I would have never considered doing it without this push block. If i could give this 10 stars I would have, I am THAT impressed with it and am going to order a second one to be able to cut long boards more safely. The photo I uploaded speaks volumes about the product. This is really designed well. Making adjustments for different pieces of wood take seconds. It's a little pricey but worth it - fingers can't be replaced.

After using the Gripper 200 for just a few cuts you will be convinced this is not just another gimmick to get you to spend your hard earned money on something that will end up in a corner of the shop unused. It is so well thought out and well built for the purpose with the adjustable center leg to allow you to set it up with ease for the best and safest cuts possible. No longer do you have to scare the crap out of yourself on some cuts that you know you should not be doing, with the Gripper your hands are nowhere near the blade even on thing rips. You will use this almost every cut on the table saw or router table too. Not only do you feel about three times safer than without but you will find that the control afforded will give you better results like less burning. For small cuts one is fine but for longer cuts having two not only makes it safe it makes it easy doing a leap frog with the pair of Grippers. It only took me a week or so of using one to get the second one, it was a no brainer. I got the optional 1/8" leg and it works great on those small cuts like making edge banding for plywood. If you rip thin strips on even a semi-regular basis get this leg too. Not an inexpensive accessory especially if you get two, but just think of it as an insurance policy with only one premium because the doctor will charge you a fortune to try to sew back on a finger or two. Pinch pennies somewhere else, these do the job and will exceed your expectations.

Five stars means "I love it." There aren't many things I actually LOVE, but this is one. I grew up with a quality radial arm saw, and for everyone that now lives in fear of them, I used it for decades without incident or injury--and I ripped and ripped with it. I now own three of them, including a 5 HP, 16 inch. I didn't own a table saw until last year, and it put fear into me like radial arms do to so many others. I cringed at ripping past that table saw blade. I bought a GRR-Ripper and it totally changed my outlook. I immediately bought a second one for leapfrogging long cuts. I don't routinely cut chopsticks with it, as the ads like to show, but I use it for EVERY rip cut, even 8-foot long stock. Complete control, no kidding. Complete confidence and as close to complete safety as is probably possible. The unit is extremely well made. It's plastic, but not junk plastic. Mold work is top notch. Fasteners thread into brass inserts. It costs some money, and it takes a moment to set up for a cut, but it helps produce better work and it keeps your fingers on your hands. Compared to the thousands we spend on tools, and the value of fingers, the cost is nothing. The world's best safety device is inside your skull. But I think the GRR-Ripper is a far better safety device than all the guards and shields and warning labels ever produced.

For safety purposes, these are worth $1000s of dollars for me. I need all of my fingers. I am an aspiring amateur wood worker. I am relatively new to wood working, but I love it. Have used this to help cut trim, tile and wood. I am very careful, however being new like me, you can never fully plan for kick backs or certain other events. This adds another layer of safety to ensure you still have all your digits. As far as the design, I am still learning to use this to its fullest. The install is a bit time consuming compared to a regular push block that is good to go out of the box. There are different sized rubber grommets and pieces to install. Overall it is worth it, but don't expect to pull it out of the ups box and go. This product has allowed me to feel more confident using my table and miter saw. Combined with the regular grip block, I can hold/cut more confidently and produce cleaner one pass cuts. I specifically like how it basically shields your hand from the saw. Another feature I like is that I am able to more securely hold the material tight to the fence of my table saw by adjusting the side pieces. last of all, it prevents small cut pieces on my table saw from being flung at me, which could injure me by force, or by the reaction of being hit and placing a body part on the saw in reaction. Great product for the non pro wood worker.

If you value your hands and use a table saw, buy one TODAY! The device straddles the saw blade giving you a firm grip and control on both the side of the wood against the fence and the free side allowing for complete control. The blade passes through the adjustable tunnel while your hand is safely riding well above the blade. Feels strange at first to run your hand over the blade, but you quickly adapt knowing that you are the safest you've ever been using a table saw. All parts are moveable allowing you to adjust for thicker or thinner cuts and even make adjustments when cutting a piece of wood that is narrower that the tool. You can cut pieces as thin as 1/4 inch with complete control. There is a very useful DVD demonstrating over 30 different uses for the Gripper for table saws, router tables, band saws, & jointers. The down side: To me, it seems a little pricey for some plastic, a handful of fasteners, and a DVD. Also, I had two brass inserts in the body that were improperly tapped which required my going to a local hardware store and buying a tap. Bottom line: Price is purely subjective but the value of your hand is not. If I didn't have to buy a tap to finish the manufacture's job, this would have been a solid 5 star review. Yeah, I could have returned it for a replacement but it I needed it three weeks from now, I would have ordered it three weeks later.

I initially saw this on a "How to" video. I am not into the newest or most expensive toy. I have made a few push sticks and what have you and made do. I initially looked at this as a gimmick, but the more I looked at it, the more interested I became. This is the single BEST safety item I have purchased. It is spectacular when sawing narrow boards. It has the ability to support/push the workpiece on both sides of the blade. I have also used this on my router. The increased safety and flexibility of this cannot be understated. I had my first serious kickback a few weeks ago. A 12" x 12" x 1/4" sheet of plywood rose up as I was pushing it through. The trailing end caught the blade and spun it back into my upper thigh. This was the single most nerve racking moment in my shop. My young son had just gone inside when this happened. The board bounced off me and off the wall. It opened up my leg a little, even though I was wearing jeans. The potential of serious injury was significant, both to me and my son. I had removed the blade guard because of the types of cuts I was doing on this particular project. The "could of" or "should of" came to mind, but that was 20/20 hindsight. The Gripper 200 advanced makes pushing boards through much safer. This is the only push tool I use. I would give this 6 stars if I could. As I already stated, it can be used on the router table as well. The thing is adjustable which is a plus and minus. I hate having to adjust the thing to make a different cut. It is easy to adjust. Just my pet peeve. It has multiple adjustments to adjust the center support, end piece(s) height. The thing as attachments that I am still trying to figure out what they do. Great purchase. I recommend this to my friends as a priority purchase.

When I was a kid, I saw my grandpa lose half of his thumb to a table saw, that memory came rushing back when I turned on my recently purchased table saw. This push block may feel expensive, but you know what’s even more expensive? Losing a finger. That’s why I recommend it. Beyond safety, here are its strong points: Weight: Not overly heavy, but it has enough heft to maintain pressure without much effort. Grip: Excellent anti-slip surface. Even with some moisture, it holds firmly. Ease of use and adjustment: I expected it to be more complicated, but it’s surprisingly easy to assemble, adjust, and use. Sturdiness: Well-built and solid. It inspires confidence that it won’t fall apart in your hands. Comfy: The ergonomics are great, you don't feel tired or pain even after using it for hours. No regrets, amazing tool.

The GRR-Ripper is such a nice tool and safety device that I recommend anyone using a table saw to have. It's simple to put together, although be careful that you do thread the screwed carefully so that they don't misalign and potentially strip. The grip and pressure of the GRR-Ripper is helpful and stands up to many types of wood as you cut them on a table saw. Pros: Simple to put together, great accessories, easy to modify for a variety of cuts, provides the ultimate in safety. I actually use this in combination with a push stick sometimes to get better guidance and more safety. Cons: my only complaint was that the first one I got had a bad screw as I was putting this together and there wasn't an extra one to build it, causing the threading in the nut to strip. Quickly replaced it however. Added Bonus: Get the movable handle accessory. You can then skew the handle to get some added diagonal/side pressure enabling further control and additional safety. Otherwise, I highly recommend this safety device and general guide for use. I'd rather have this thing get cut to pieces than my fingers.

組み立て式でした ガンプラの取説みたいなカラーガイドに従って作っていきます プラスドラーバー必要です パーツは意外に細かいので無くさないようにしてください パーツリストがありますので丁寧に合わせていきます 組み立てはこの手のものを購入される方なら問題ないと思います 気になった点ですがワッシャが２枚なかったです 必要ないように思えましたが手元にあったもので間に合っています それとネジの受け側にプラが詰まっていました 取り除くとスムーズに組めます DVDが付いてましたが見ていないのでなんなのかわかりませんしリージョンコードあるのでどんなもんでしょう 気がつけば後日追記します 箱にQRコードがあります YouTubeの映像を見ることができますのでこちらの方がわかりやすいです

Hallo, ich verwende dieses Produkt für einen Hobby-Workshop zu Hause. Es macht einen perfekten Job für mich und schützt mich vor zukünftigen Verletzungen.

I wish I’d bought one of these a long time ago. Table saws should be treated with respect and this device whilst quite expensive is much cheaper than having fingers reattached! I’ve used large table saws for years and recently installed a DeWalt saw in my workshop and their jig makes using it feel al lot safer and allows accurate and repeatable cuts to be made. I’m not thinking a second one may be handy for feeding longer lengths of wood through the saw without pausing. See YouTube videos for excellent reviews of this product. Happy to recommend and word buy again but hopefully won’t need to. Some reviewers report it difficult to set up but I didn’t find that personally especially if you bother to read the instructions or watch videos etc.

Yo lo uso para mi sierra de banco y es muy seguro, tiene muchas formas de acomodar según el Tipo de corte y te genera mucha confianza. Evita el kickback de la sierra y te genera más confianza. Muy buen diseño y los materiales bastante resistentes. Lo recomiendo , es necesario tener uno y recomiendo ampliamente comprar dos , si tienes una sierra de mesa y trabajas con maderas largas.

It is very important tool and makes cutting wood easy,fast and safe
