I started to remodel my shop about 45 days ago. Very quickly at first, just a new work bench/cut off table for behind my table saw 3'X8' with 12 drawers for my extra hand tools. I got the bench built (drawers not yet), than I ran into this deal and decided to upgrade my TS and other equipment.
The Deal; I just purchased; 5hp Left tilt Shop Fox cabinet saw, with; run off table, Bies. fence and over head dust and blade guard, 3 WWII blades, Freud dial-a-datto, ext. table,anti kick back rollers, 3hp dust control Grizzly with 2 remotes, grizzly 6" jointer,Rigid 13" planner with stand and DC, Dewalt 12" miter saw, dust hoses and fittings (filled the back of my truck), Jess-em miter gauge, and some other wood, oak and Zecote (sorry don't know the spelling). 17" Grizzly GO513 Bandsaw with a box of 12 blades,Rigid table top sander, About $1200 worth of veneers and mohogony. Plus new in box vacuam press. For $1600 The equipment is less than 3 years old and probably has 20 hours use. 3 of the 4 saw blade where new. Just saw the price on the Bies overhead guard $699. I was shocked, the guy's wife wanted her garage back and just wanted to get rid of the stuff. Also got 10- 3/4" pipe clamps and some cheap HF clamps. Probably forgetting a few things. I will be selling a few items soon, I'll post pic's after I get the shop reset. This started as, "I think I'll make some new shop cabinets". Figured on a 4-5 day job, its turned into might as well upgrade and build more cabinets (now a month or 2 job). Just called my guy to have him drop in a couple of 220 lines. Can't wait to get the excess out of my way, and start playing again .
Can't seem to get that smile off my face. Sometimes even handicap old farts get a good deal...This was a nice way to step up thanks CL.....
Just couldn't pass that deal up. I've gotten the electrical taken care of dropped 3 new 220 lines and 2 new 110 lines. Set up the TS, didn't like the roll off (roller type) table. Of course my new workbench/cut off table was 2" too tall. Now its just a work bench. So I made one big OOCH!!! move. While moving my old sears craftsmans tablesaw it got dropped and of course broke the motor mounting plate. So its been broken down I used the ext. table and Bies. fence for a cut off table and mounted my Bench Dog router table at the other end, which now sports a Bies. fence. I used the TS switch with my router table. So good does come out of OOCH!!
I have missed working with wood, so I've had to sneak in a few Bandsaw projects just to keep in practice.
The hardest part was where to stack my wood and sheet goods. That turned out great. Now on to making all the draws and getting 4 buckets of tools put away. Than tear into the last 1/4 of my shop where I stacked all the Misc. Stuff. Thinking I will look for a sheet goods rack for that corner. I like to stock a few sheets of BB ply being that I'm 45 miles from Tucson.
If I had it all to do over again...HECK YES...it's been fun. Still hard to believe I have a 5hp cabinet saw, DC on everything. I'll post pic's as soon as I'm done.
