What's on your Wishlist?

I don’t think amazon could hold all my wish list…LOL….I have santa working on a nice jointer – 8” or better….other then that….the rest will have to come in time….lots of time…LOL

-- Woodworking.....My small slice of heaven!

Fun list! Mine would look almost identical, plus a biscuit joiner and a compressor-nailer combo.

-- Jim, North Vancouver, BC

Reggiek,

I would rather have an 8” jointer too. I just wanted to keep all the items on my list under $300. If they buy me 6” jointer I’d happily take it.

Scrabby,

I’ve always wanted a biscuit cutter but then I saw Marc Spag's podcast about the Festool Domino so now I’m undecided.

Truth be told I’m not very good with a biscuit cutters we have here at the shop. When I made the GFC I had recut a lot of the slots because the joints weren’t flush. I’m sure I’d get better with practice but I was hoping the Domino would just be easier to register.

Here's mine. Now if’ns I just had someone to fill it. :(

Great list Chunk.

I added your Incra Miter Gauge and the JessEm Master-R-Lift to my list.

Thanks for the ideas,

time.

Just one thing….A winning Loto ticket LOL.

-- Jim from Heirloom Woodshop Southern Oregon

I just put my PC biscuit for sale to a few friends….didn’t want a bunch of yo yo’s from craigslist like I had last time…..I just find that I don’t use it very much….I am really glad I passed on the domino earlier….lots of money…but not alot of good machine….I think you are better off making your own tenons and mortises….or using splines….the only time I use the PC is for lining up sheets….but it is a pain to set up…change knives if I need too…so on and so on…....just an opinion I have formed on these tools that they take more time to use then if you just did the stuff yourself…

Matt, I thought you guys in Napa Vally had nothing but time. That’s what it shows in all the ads.

Jim, I thought people in Oregon didn’t care about money. You mean you guys don’t live in communes and smoke dope anymore?

Reg, you might be right about that. There are lots of other ways to make joints.

More time with my girls.

-- Whether You Think You Can or You Think You Can't, YOU ARE RIGHT!!!

I have several of your choices on my list as well… read all reviews on that Delta jointer.. I was looking into one of those but was not impressed with the feedback… good luck with your list

“Great list Chunk.

Glad you like. Feel free to fill any one or all of those! Oh yeah my B-Day is x-mas too so you can get both occasions at the same time. ;)

The only thing I really like to have ( but not necessarily need ) is a 12” jointer.

Would be nice!

-- Gary, East TX -- The longest journey begins with a single step.

I’m thinking big.

Maybe if I could get in on Jim’s lotto ticket.

A dedicated shop. My garage shop has been overrun with my wife’s household stuff.

I know what you mean Wayne,

But don’t kid yourself. I used to have dedicated workshop that was almost the size of a 3 car garage. I used it for years then one day the little woman suggested we store a couple of things in it. I should have said no but… the next thing I knew it wasn’t a shop anymore it was a storage shed.

The top of my wish list is a new house where I can build a shop in the back yard. I can’t do that at my current home because of stupid HOA rules. Once I have that shop, I can buy the Delta Unisaw that keeps floating around in my dreams..

That would be nice Rick.

When I had my dedicated shop I wasn’t serious about woodworking. The only woodworking tool I had was a Radial Arm Saw. Then I inherited an old Craftsman table saw. But I still wasn’t really into woodworking. I remember my buddy down the street was so excited because someone gave him a planer, I thought why would anyone plane their own wood when you can buy it that way?

I just used the tools for small projects. The biggest project I ever did in that shop was rebuild the engine in my truck.

Now I would love to have that shop again. Who knew?

About 120-150 more square feet in my shop.

PS And of course all the nice new tools you could ever want. :-)

I really don’t have the room, but a planer would be very good.

-- You can't trust dogs to guard your food.

As a “new” woodworker, my list contains a LOT of what would be considered as fundamental/basic tools (measuring, tool set-up, fences, zero clearance inserts, many hand tools, etc.). I figure I should learn with those before going big and then having to figure out the “where do i keep this thing” problem.

-- Life is a one lap race.

I don’t think you said to be practical, so here’s mine

Shaper—3 or more HP
Festool Domino (I have a store demo, but would love one at home to use all the time)
Festool Router.
20” Planer
More nice hand planes.
Wide belt Sander

I know I think big, but I have a commercial shop, so I’m spoiled. I want all this for my home shop.
It’s very hard to go back to smaller tools once you have used the big stuff.

-- Kent Shepherd * The goal is-----More Tools!

I like cutting all of my joint’s by hand .and on my wish list would be a shoulder plane 22 ’ jointer plane rabbit plane
