I have worn these model airplane tires and wheels out and this is why I found a deal on 8 inline skate wheels. Softest I could find for this. This makes it much easier keeping the wood against the fence. I can still use the wood jigs I originally made for these wheels since they are the same size as the old ones.

Now that's a cool idea, Jess!

Nice

I've been using the 2 model airplane wheels for over 20 years and have been looking for more tires like what I already have but never found any. These came off the things hanging up in the shop and have been too tight for the price of new.

  The magnets came from Grizzly. I use one magnet when I'm repeat sawing same length pieces on the table saw and using the magnet as an edge to push each piece up to. Works better than anything else I've ever tried.

RC cars and trucks use some soft tires.  Some are not to bad for price.

What a great idea using the magnets from Grizzly ! I didn’t realize they were only 12 bucks. That’s a lot cheaper than the other magnetic fences etc that they sell.

You can get the same magnets at Harbor for 12.99 with support arms attached. Wish I had seen this when I was doing more flat work.

I show this use of magnets since I have lived here. Probably in lots of my pictures.

Gerald the same magnets I have used forever are 11.95 At Grizzly #2228 I think thats the number.
