Slotters Designed for Every Need

At Connext, we offer three different slotters to suit a variety of customer needs, from DIY enthusiasts to professional contractors.

  • The EZ Slotter is an entry tool meant to meet the needs of small jobs or one time jobs ($99)

  • The Beam Boss Slotter has been in development for two years. It is a high quality tool meant for large jobs and professional contractors ($299)

  • The Pro Slotter is an industrial tool specifically designed to cut large timbers and support professional contractors. In addition to slotting, it is a great tool to cross-cut large timbers ($699) 

Each slotter has a video to show its use below. A side by side comparison of each is available here.

Pro Slotter

This heavy-duty versatile tool works especially well with larger timbers as it clamps onto your beam conveniently.

Any full-sized chainsaw can be used to make the 1/4" slot required for the T-REX connector. (Most smaller electric chainsaws have a narrow bar and will not cut a 1/4” slot.)

We recommend the lightweight electric Stihl Chainsaw MSE 250 C-Q. This custom aluminum tool offers many options:

• Slots any size beam

• Square cuts beams up to 14” plus

• Creates tenons
