Our New Yankee Workshop

Well I finally did it. I bought a decent table saw. A Powermatic contractors saw with left tilt. A big upgrade from my grandfather's trusty ol' Rockwell. It has served me well but it was time to move on. I am getting ready to undertake my first serious project-a desk for E. I also bought a biscuit joiner and came across an old drill press from a friend. (Unfortunately the drill press needs a new motor.) I think the only major thing I am missing is a ban saw. Of course I could always use a bigger router and more clamps!

Tool wall (L to R)Jointer/planer, table saw, power miter saw, drill press, router table in rear, shaper, and biscuit joiner.























Is that Norm who stopped by to help me with my shop layout?







My newer tool bench and I already have it covered!

How come I don't see an Ultrasonic cleaner anywhere in that work shop, don't understand how you can get along without one.???????

Please...don't encourage him. What we really can't get along without is a bigger basement!
