On Our Way to Eastool Auction & Expo

Adam and Ryan from AdvancedDimensions.com / Dirig Design, Inc. are excited to exhibit and attend the annual Eastool Auction & Expo in Quarryville, PA this weekend! They'll be set up and ready to meet some new customers at the show's exhibit on September 25-26 at the Solanco Area Fairgrounds.

This will be the second year that AdvancedDimensions.com has exhibited at the Eastool Auction & Expo. Last year's show was a great success, as many attendees were interested in the laser products that we sell for their personal and business needs.

Adam and Ryan are looking forward to meeting with some new potential customers, and admiring the beautiful artistry that surrounds the region of Lancaster, PA. If you are in the area, be sure to attend this free event, and come say hello at booth 851!

Keep up with us on our Facebook Page as we post updates from the show.

More about the show:
Every year manufacturers from the wood and metal working and construction industries converge on the small town of Quarryville, PA. What draws them there? The Annual Eastool Show! The show brings manufacturers and vendors in the industry together to share new ideas, and the latest in technology and equipment. Vendors showcase new tools and products, parts and supplies, heating and energy options, marketing concepts, and long list of other goods and services. The auction itself draws over a thousand bidders looking to add that missing piece to their manufacturing line, or simply replace some worn out tools. It's not often you see so many tools in one place. It's where men love to shop! There is always time to mix in a little fun with your business, as contestants try to their hand at nail driving, and screwing and assembling contests. No event like this would be complete without some good homemade food to satisfy the hunger while supporting the Caring Hands Project that helps supports Amish children with mental & physical handicaps. 

Leica 3D Disto vs. DISTO S910

Leica Geosystems has come out with some pretty impressive tools over the last few years. We've been selling lots of 3-dimensional measuring/templating tools lately, and we've received a lot of questions about the differences between the two 3D models that Leica offers: the 3D DISTO and the DISTO S910. Leica just sent us this comparison chart, and we thought we'd publish it on the blog in order to give a better picture of the differences between the two, in hopes that it would help clarify which one would be better for the work that you are doing. As always, if you have any questions about either tool, give us a call!

New Website!

We've been doing some spring cleaning here at AdvancedDimensions.com, and to celebrate how excited we are that the beautiful weather has reached our part of the world, we're unveiling our new website!

While our site has a sleek new design, AdvancedDimensions.com remains the same reliable company you've come to know and trust. You'll find all of our Leica DISTO and Lino products along with their accessories in our updated webstore along with how to contact us if you need help or just have questions.

We get pretty excited about our laser measurement tools here at AdvancedDimensions.com, and when the DISTO S910 was announced, it was no different. We've had the chance to give it a spin, and the quality of this tool definitely holds up to the Leica standards we've come to know and love.














Check out this video from Leica to see why we're so excited about this new DISTO:

AdvancedDimensions.com Hits the Road in 2015

Our CEO, Adam, realized very early on as a Leica Geosystems dealer that the laser measuring tools that we sell are especially applicable to professional woodworkers who need fast, easy, and accurate measurements. At AdvancedDimensions.com, we like to visit different woodworking trade shows around the nation in order to put these tools in the hands of some of the top woodworking professionals around. We've been to many shows over the last few years, and we’re pleased to announce that we’ll be attending a few more in 2015!

Trade shows provide awesome opportunities for everybody involved. For attendees, the opportunity to learn about new trade practices and products is extremely valuable. For exhibitors, the chance to meet face to face with your target market, make new friends, and hear new opinions and stories is invaluable. Perhaps the greatest part of any trade show is the opportunity to network with other industry professionals across the region, striking up conversation about anything from running business to the best wood finish products.

We love the atmosphere of trade shows. It seems like everybody in the building is avidly seeking information about how to improve their quality of work. This is a perfect environment for us to hang out for a few days and let woodworkers know that they could be capturing measurements and projecting perfectly leveled lines more easily and efficiently than they do by using tape measures and traditional levels. These people are genuinely interested in what we’re providing, and it’s a great experience for us to make new friends along the way!

We already had the chance to exhibit at The Woodworking Shows in Somerset, NJ show last month. We were really excited about this show because of its location in the Northeast, and the excitement that these shows are bringing around the nation (this is a traveling show with over a dozen events each year in various locations around the country). We met a lot of excellent woodworkers who were intrigued by the Leica products that we were selling. We ended up shipping a large portion of our inventory when we returned to the office on Monday because of the orders that were placed that weekend. We’re happy to provide this amazing industry with these amazing tools!

Next up on our trade show list is the Cabinets & Closets Expo in Chicago this April, and then the Association of Woodworking and Furnishing Suppliers Fair (AWFS) in Las Vegas this July. We’re excited about the potential of meeting influential woodworking contacts for these national gatherings.

Will you be at these shows? Are there any others that you’re attending this year? We’ve got a few more on our radar that we’re not ready to announce yet, but we’ll be announcing them as we make commitments!
