Premium Composite Decking
Trex Co. is expanding its premium Transcend decking line with the introduction of Trex Transcend Lineage, boasting refined aesthetics, trend-forward colors, and enhanced performance features.
The new boards feature an elevated aesthetic with subtle, elegant graining for an unmatched natural appearance. Available in two new color options (Rainier, an airy mountain gray, and Biscayne, a light coastal brown), they are engineered with heat-mitigating technology in the shell to reflect the sun and reportedly keep boards cooler than other composite decking offerings of a similar color.
Boards come in square and grooved profiles, measuring 1”x6”. Square-edge boards come in 16’ and 20’ lengths. Grooved boards come in 12’, 16’ and 20’ lengths.

Find Your Center
Microjig’s new FitFinder 1/2 Gauge allows users to find the exact center of stock with no measuring and no math. It draws on basic geometry and simple mechanics to automatically indicate the center point of pieces up to 3” thick.
It can be used around the shop when setting fences, transferring cutting depths, and creating joints, using a pair of legs that move together. When woodworkers set one leg on top of the material, the other leg automatically moves to indicate the center of the stock. This measurement can be locked and used to set up machines or mark parts as needed. It can also help center router bits, center stock on the lathe and more. It works for square, rectangular or round stock. n MICROJIG.COM (855) 747-7233
