Popular Post OzarkSawdust Posted January 22, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 22, 2021 I squirreled away some money from the sale of my bass boat for shop equipment. My three major items are a Delta 36-725T2 table saw (on order) a DeWalt DW734 planer (in the shop) and a Wahuda 8" jointer (ordered yesterday) ! Then I'll make some rolling tables, one assembly about 4' x 4' same height as the Delta saw's table for an outfeed and assembly table. Then one each for planer and jointer also sized to match the assembly for extended outfeed. I may even make one for my benchtop drill press and get it off the main workbench. When I rearrange the shop they will roll up to an outside wall for storage, leaving the center of the shop open. Well...at least that's the plan...LOL.

OzarkSawdust Posted January 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2021 But I bought a smaller fishing boat...A Twin Troller. It's in the shop as we speak, waiting for warmer weather.

kmmcrafts Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 Nice list of new tools.. you will wonder how you did everything with out the planer.. Probably one of the most used tools in my shop besides the scroll saws.. I've been tool shopping to.. Mostly just buying add-on things for my CNC and Laser.. looking at getting a much larger laser.. but the $8000 price tag is intimidating.. trying to decide if I have enough fat to hold me over for a year of not eating.. and if the shop is warm enough now that I put heat in there for my bed to sleep on is worth it or not, OzarkSawdust and OCtoolguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Lotts Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) Congrats on the tools! Reminds me of when I got my garage built ten or eleven years ago. Lots of tool purchases... drill press, table saw & miter saw were first day items for me. Lived all my life with no place to put tools so when I finally got a place I wasted no time getting some serious tools. Here in southern AZ I want but cant justify a boat Lol..

I live in Sierra Vista (an Army town) which is pretty close to the famous old west town of Tombstone. The closest metropolitan city would be Tucson which is about an hours drive away. Sharon and I bought a house here 31 years ago while I was serving in the Army. My house is pinned on the member map if you look there.

Some of the best ribs I ever had were in a place there, I can't recall the name now. We went through about 6 months later and it had closed up. Nice restaurant. This was back about 10 years ago. I love that whole area around Benson, Tucson, Catalina Mountains. The State RV Park up in the mountains there is great. Ken Lotts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My house is pinned on the member map if you look there. We lived in Tucson for about 3 years, About 2 blocks W of I-10 on Grant, we were managing a self storage and lived on site. Lots of fantastic restaurants, and the southern most ski resort in the US. Had a shooting range about 5 min. from the house and a gun show every other weekend. Lots of interesting things around there. Ken Lotts and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine you might be thinking of Daisy Mae's. They closed down a few years ago. It was a fun western themed place and they had fabulous steaks very near the main gate of the fort. The Tombstone Vigilantes skit crews liked to show up there. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it was clear down at the opposite end of town if I recall. The name will come to me because it was the same as a place around here and I thought maybe it was connected but turns out it wasn't. It'll come to me but not when I'm trying to recall it. Later at some more inopportune time. Ken Lotts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still trying to envision the best way to set it up. Trying to keep it as flexible as possible because it's not a "wood shop only" and need to do other things there. The table saw and the jointer are both due in tomorrow. It'll probably be end of the week or next week before I'm able to work in the shop. I'm in the middle of a walk in closet remodel that's a challenge and a half. I think the high school wood shop built this house...unsupervised! new2woodwrk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
