    Smile Official Gloats - Finally

    I have been listening to things on the site and finally am ready to officially list my gloats - WHAT? - Can't make it that easy. Therefore, I have 5 pictures where the gloats are hidden

    There are "officially" 18 gloats in the pictures. Can you find them all? There are actually 2 more but they are not shown in these pictures - maybe later.

    Enjoy

    By the way, the person who gets the most correct is invited to help me get them all tuned/built/working/...

    Forget the toys

    Forget gloating about all the new toys - I'm envious of all that space.

    Look forward to seeing more as you fill it up.

    I agree with Ian.

    Gloat number one: a woodshop the size of an aircraft hangar.

    I am especially jealous.

    Not one of the legal gloats - already mentioned/shown in an earlier post.

    OK, I'll take a stab at a few of the items: Looks like an Excalibur Overhead guard/dust collector, a Unisaw, a DJ20 and, if I'm not mistaken, one of the MM bandsaws. Looks like you've got a whole peck of stuff there and the above mentioned items only cover a few of them. Come on...Out with it! What are all the good?! Inquiring minds want to know!

    OK, I'll try again...

    1. DJ-20 Jointer

    2. Excaliber Blade guard/dust collector system

    3. Unisaw of some sort, or maybe on second look it is just a contractor saw with a big extension table and outfeed table.

    4. Is that a Woodmaster wide belt sander? I want one of those, but can't build my hangar for a year or two yet.

    5. Minimax band saw

    6. Delta floor model drill press

    7. Some sort of radial arm saw

    8. Woodstove, which you will no doubt need in Colorado, in my shop, it would be an air conditioner.

    9. Lumber storage rack (I need one of those!)

    10. Beisemeyer fence...(I need one of those, two, my cheapo Jet fence slipped again tonight while I was cutting a sheet of plywood.)


    11. Push broom? (OK, grasping for straws now!)

    I give up, let someone else have try.

    Yeah, but I missed the DP! And I SAW the stupid thing, too! You got me on the push broom and wood rack, as well.

    Edit: Martin, that ain't no contractor saw there, my friend! Look again!

    Looks like a PC 7518 and router table, and I'll b et there's a lift system for it as well. Ther appears to be acloset with a compressor, and although I don't see the cyclone, it looks like ducting coming out the top!

    Not bad - I hadn't counted the dust broom and some of the other things. I guess I will add them also.

    Martin is the closest but still a lot hiding there.

    Here is the list as identified so far.
    1. Agazzani 24" bandsaw (not MM)
    2. Delta 17-990X variable speed drill press
    3. TBD - look closely at drill press
    4. Delta Unisaw - 5HP: not on original list of gloats, I have had it too long
    5. TBD - look closely at saw
    6. Porter Cable 7518
    7. Yes, there is a lift: Jessem Mast-R-Lift
    8. A router table top near the PC and Mast-R-Lift
    9. Excaliber Blade Guard/Dust collector
    10. TBD - what is in the boxes to the right of the excaliber?
    11. TBD - more in the boxes to the right of the Excaliber
    12. 3HP Oneida DC - not a wood burning stove. Almost all packaged up in its own little DC house.
    13. Radial Saw is NOT a gloat - however, there is something on it that is.
    14. Delta DJ-20
    15. Woodmaster what? 3 gloats here plus another gloat sitting on it - oh what could it be? oh what could it be.
    16. The wood rack is really just one of my sets of scaffolding - I am using 2 sets to store stuff at this time.
    17. The beisemeyer fence in not a gloat.


    9 yet to identify - the clock is ticking

    Nice tooling, my friend. I lusted for the Aggi 24, but ceiling height would not permit it. You might think about a zero clearance on that Uni. It sure helped mine with the dust collection, and stability on vey narrow cuts. Sure wish I had that kind of space, but, that said, I don't think I could afford to fill it up.

    BLAAAAATTTTTT!!!! Times up.

    Here are some more answers.

    In the "unisaw" picture there are:
    • remote control for DC plugged into the wall - near router table top
    • snap-in beisemeyer splitter sitting on top the unisaw


    In the "more" picture there are:
    • a sliding table for the unisaw sitting on the floor (big silver thing) - robland from laguna
    • copper piping for remaining air supply stations through out the building (6 stations)


    In the "wm" picture:
    • 4' Starrett Straight Edge sitting on Woodmaster
    • Woodmaster 725 planer (7.5HP) with the professional pack providing the sander, molder, and gang saws


    And finally, in the "picture1" picture there are:
    • Incra TSLS fence system
    • Incra Wonder Fence


    I have a few more gloats but will wait until I catch up on getting these all installed and working. One of the many pains of building the shop at the same time trying to put the tools in.

    Must finish the DC ducting and new electric runs.

    NOTE: there is sawdust on top the unisaw.
