I have debated for several weeks now about whether to to sell my 3hp 10" Shopfox cabinet saw and upgrade to a PM2000 or Unisaw. Of course my mind wants me too, but is it really worth it right now in my hobby shop? I have made some other purchases of what i call the best and figured that buying it now will save me from having to upgrade and make another purchase in the future. Then there is always the chance that a newer model will come out and test my temptations but that can be handled differently. My shop brands mostly reflect Powermatic and Jet as my two main brands, but i do have a few Delta items too. I have thought about trying to arrange to have mostly all one brand but that kinda seems to spoil my tool addiction of trying different brand things that i may eventually like even better. My goal is to have all of the top of the line things that i will need to make cabinets / furniture so then i can soley focus on making a small part time business out of it eventually in the next 3 to 5 years. Instead of wasting my time in the shop on the internet looking and dreaming of what could be… I would like to hear some of your guys stories and justification for buying what is needed in your shops. Maybe then i will be able to use the experience to help me down my path of woodworking.
Thanks
