Introduction
Easy Wood Tools manufactures wood turning tools and accessories all right here in The United States of America, it was only natural that a great American owned company like Easy Wood Tools, would team up with a great American woodworking online community such as The Patriot Woodworker's.
Easy Wood Tools, Made in America, with American Labor, and sold to the world!
Easy Wood Tools History
In 2008 Easy Wood Tools began operations in Owensboro, KY as the first manufacturer to offer carbide-tipped woodturning tools. The complicated techniques required when using traditional turning tools and the constant need to sharpen those tools inspired the idea that there must be a better way. Using existing carbide cutters took away much of the frustration of the constant need for sharpening, but they were not designed for woodturning.
 
Easy Wood Tools partnered with Total Engineered Products and its owner Chris Caliendo. They were tasked with developing the world’s first carbide insert specifically designed for woodturning. The Genuine EWT carbide inserts have been formulated to combine the perfect grade of carbide, and specialized grinding and sharpening techniques that have never used before.
 
Today, the Caliendo family now owns and operates Easy Wood Tools in Lexington Kentucky and carries forward the tradition and commitment of made in U.S.A. craftsmanship and pride in top quality tools. New product development and commitment to quality, Easy Wood Tools offers a full line of turning tools and accessories.1
Involvement
Easy Wood Tools is a staunch supporter of our American fighting men and women serving our Armed Forces, and they also have an abundance of compassion, care, and concern for our veterans who have sacrificed much for us. Easy Wood Tools has been with us since the early days of our existence, the founders of this great American Company (Craig and Donna Jackson) were our original contacts for sponsorship of our woodworking community and the projects we perform throughout the year. Mr. and Mrs. Jackson set the foundations between our two entities and started in motion a great relationship that lasts to this day, in partnership with the current owner Chris Caliendo, who took over the company in 2016. The Caliendo's have been instrumental in helping us fundraise for our veterans projects and other activities we perform, and they are always at the ready to jump in and help especially when it comes to a project involving our veterans. Jim Luely, our main contact with Easy Wood Tools is actually a member of The Patriot Woodworker and he jumps in when he can, and shares his own turning adventures with us, and Mr. Luely is our liaison between The Patriot Woodworkers and the very busy Caliendo's. We are very appreciative for the outlay of goods and sponsorship that Easy Wood Tools has provided our community, in order to facilitate and maintain our veterans projects.

Introduction
Woodcraft Supply is one of the leading retailers in the industry of woodworking arts, crafts and trades. Read about how Woodcraft became a sponsor of our woodworking community.
Woodcraft, supporters of our fighting men and women of our Armed Forces, and the Veterans our online woodworking community serves.
Woodcraft History
Founded in Boston in 1928, Woodcraft's operations were moved to Parkersburg, West Virginia in 1989. It's been 80 years since Woodcraft first began selling high quality woodworking tools and supplies out of a one room shop in Boston's North End, and Woodcraft is still firmly committed to providing woodworkers with superior products and expert advice.
Involvement
Woodcraft is a staunch supporter of the fighting men and women of The United States Military, so it would only stand that we would end up functioning as partners in order to achieve one objective, to express our care and concern for our veterans through grass roots projects that would benefit individual veterans and their families, and by fundraising for various veterans organizations. Since our focus is on the individual veteran with disabilities who is also a woodworker, it was only natural for Woodcraft to support our ongoing projects to help those individuals as well as contribute to our fundraising projects for veterans organizations. Woodcraft has supported our community through an annual supporters fee, those funds help offset the costs of running our community, and help provide funding and material items for our projects throughout the year.
 
Without our supporters we could not keep our woodworking community alive and functioning, Woodcraft has been with us since our inception in 2010. And Woodcraft has been involved in every single project The Patriot Woodworker's have created.
Woodcraft's dedication to our causes and our woodworkers is greatly appreciated by our community, Woodcraft has been a partner in our veterans causes and interaction with Woodcraft is nothing short of stellar, just like their customer service is on a daily basis.
