Gavel, I guess I usually answer these questions with—-What kind of woodworking do you want to do? There is no pat answer in how to equip a shop. If all you want to do is to turn pens, then a lathe would be in order. If you want to put up crown moulding, then you need a miter saw. Boxes, maybe a band saw or router table. I’m just trying to make a point that the more we know, the more we can help you, and we would love to do just that.

Good luck!
