Okay, my wife can no longer complain that I have too many tools in our basement. The video on page 3 is mind boggling. I think I need more routers and drills!

Without even clicking ... lots of us know of him. Very good woodworker, and friendly guy !
You can have TOO LITTLE WORKSHOP, but NOT too much stuff

The key tool in the workshop is the woodworker. He needs space to stand and to transition between work stations. Those areas are the most important part of a workshop. Everything else is just storage.

My name is Chip and I AM a MACHINERY-holic! I admit I have a problem. 7 shapers, 4 tablesaws, 3 RASs, 3 planers, 3 jointers, 2 BSs, 2 DPs! The list goes on...I'll stop there. Yes, One can have too many tools.
Some need to be sold. Some I would not part with for any price. I just need a bigger Shop!...like an old warehouse! Bruuhaahaahaa! (Isn't CraigsList wonderful???)

He has a lot of stuff and it looks like it would work for a nice shop, but it doesn't look like he can build much more than birdhouses due to lack of space and assembly area. Even a 10 foot by 10 foot open space would be helpful. Maybe he has it, but it doesn't show. Also, since it is in a basement larger items may be difficult to get out. I cannot imagine carrying sheets of plywood to his tablesaw.
I like my shop, but I wouldn't mind some of his gadgets!

I have that very foot pedal biscuit joiner. I would like to see the attached cam lever he used to eliminate the foot pedal variance.
