Tools The quality of the woods you purchase for your project may seem like the most significant step in your process, but it is important not to forget the tools that you employ to bring it to completion. A dull table saw blade or low performing glue can end up cheapening or ruining your project. Whether you’re purchasing your first table saw, or looking to upgrade your saw accessories, we can provide you with the assistance you need to make the quality project you envisioned. While we can’t physically stock every product, we do have a selection of the most popular products from SawStop, Powermatic, and Jet in stock and ready to be taken home and put to use. At any time, we usually have four models of SawStop table saws on hand, from the convenient Jobsite saw, all the way up to a 3hp Professional Cabinet saw. Dust collection systems, jointers, planers, sanders, and shapers from Powermatic and Jet can typically be rolled out to your vehicle the day of the purchase. We offer a complete line of Festool, Diablo, and Kreg cutting systems, drills, and accessories. If we don’t have the exact model you’re looking for in store, we can order it direct from the manufacturer. Delivery in those cases is approximately two weeks.
Hardware The hardware used for your project quite literally holds it together. It is important that you match your hardware to your project both in design and efficiency. At Cardwell Hardwoods, we are proud to supply our customers with the perfect combination of wood, tools, and hardware you need to complete your next project.
Decorative: Knobs and pulls in a variety of designs, finishes, and colors.
