It’s not much of a shop lay out wise. Everything is on wheels and stacked everywhere due to my total renovation of our house. When I want to build something everything must be moved out of the way to get to something I need so I live with it until the house is done… Some of the equipment and tools in the shop are as follows; (some missing from photo) I never thought about selling the projects I make but I sure need a larger space, I thought if I rented something in an industrial park I could sell some items to cover the expenses of rent, electric and insurance etc. so I am toying with that idea because plus I spend about 6 hours a day

I could not pass it up. I picked it up used from a woodworking club. The band saw I got at IRS auction and picked it up on a trip to visit my daughter in MD and the guy threw in 10 clamps with the pipes. It was a good day!

Hi Sandhill,

You posted the shop pictures before I came on board but I am glad it surfaced on my list. You have a nice shop and an excellent group of tools. The planer was a wonderful addition to your collection.

Thanks for the post.

I can’t wait until I am able to get back to it. I got me a job and will be adding some tools, Sliding compound miter saw and a spindle sander will be first. I will sell the 20” planner and 8” jointer to be replaced by a 16” or 20” combo jointer/planner. Then back to retirement!

I noticed that in your shop pics that you had some of those black and yellow parallel bar clamps. I know that they are priced pretty cheap. Are you happy with them and do they perform well, Thanks

I got them about 5 years ago but there not cheep $45.00 each I like them OK but they are no better then the ones you put on the ends of 3/4” pipe in fact you get better clamping pressure on the pipe ones and can make them any length you want I often find the yellow ones to short.
