Bandsaw - Grizzly 514X2
First Chain Saw - little electric saw a friend gave me.
Truck - what my wife wants a year or two from now when we pay off my car.
It looks like a little money is coming in so I have at least a distant hope of getting a new Delta 46-460 or a used larger lathe this year (patience, patience, patience). I actually have not seen a really good deal from Craigslist since starting this thread, but I'm hoping that something magic could happen through contacts at San Diego Wood Turners. I go to my first meeting on january 21.
Despite the whole purpose of this "True Cost" thread, I would be willing to start with as good a machine as possible, then buy tools and accessories one at a time as I can afford them.
