My shop is in my basement which fortunately has a 5 foot wide walkout entry and I am able to get my truck fairly close for bring materials in and bigger projects out. I currently have a 6” Grizzly jointer, a 12 ” planer that was manufactured in China but seems to work OK for the price that I paid. I have a craftsman table saw that I upgraded a few years ago from one that I had for 25 years. I have my Dad’s 40 year old Black and Decker radial arm sam, which still works well for cross cutting and dados! My shop is in a bit of dis-array right now as I am working on finishing my nieces basement, and am hauling tools back and forth to her house. And my miter saw is disassembled because I have some kind of vibration problem with it.
I will post some pictures when I get it cleaned up a little!

Hi John,
It sounds as if you have an interesting shop. How about posting some pictures so that the shop junkies, like myself, can visit?

No pictures yet, but I have added a couple of tools to the shop! I picked up a craftsman 12” bandsaw and a craftsman 12” lathe, both in good used condition, but both appear to be running just fine so far. Hopefully I will be able to spend some time in the shop soon as business travel has kept me away.

Thanks for the pictures. Your shop looks well organized and you have some nice tools to play with. I really like your table saw set up.
Thanks for the post. I enjoyed visiting your shop.
