    Old Craftsman benchtop shaper
    ShopFox 20" planer

    Large Porter Cable router mounted in a table. (not sure the HP, kinda old)
    2.5 HP(peak) Bosch router
    Medium sized Porter Cable router
    Ryobi planer/jointer
    Ritter horizontal boring machine
    Ritter 13 spindle line boring machine
    Brand new Kremlin Airmix spray system
    Omal hinge press (for Euro hinges)
    Ridgid 18V drill, circular saw, reciprocating saw, power planer, and flashlight
    2 Dewalt 12V impact drills
    A bunch of Dewalt standard 12v drills
    2 Grizzly 2 HP (I think) dust collectors.
    1 Grizzly 1 HP dust collector (for the 50" drum sander)
    Scroll saw
    Jig saw
    Bench grinder
    Lots of hammers, wrenches, and misc. hand tools
    Rol-Air 2 hp (real horsepower, not fake) 20 gal. air compressor
    Craftsman 4.5 fake HP air 20 gal. compressor
    Dynabrade 5" pneumatic sander

    Oh, and of course my Solsylva CNC router!

    Wow! I didn't realize I actually had that much stuff, and I left a lot of the small miscellaneous tools like laser levels, etc. out of the list. All this fits in our 2500 sqft. cabinet shop. My next goal is to somehow fit a 4x8 CNC router in there.

    I have a 3000sq ft shop I share with 5 others. We've got tons of crap, most of it oriented towards car restoring/racing. Here's a short list of some of our stuff:

    K2 CNC plasma table, custom CNC vertical mill, HF X1 CNC vertical mill in enclosure, 2x drill presses, brake press, bead roller, abrasive saw, aluminum miter saw, sand blasting cabinet, parts washer, 2x car lifts, 80gal 7hp compressor with hard lines around the shop, throatless sheet cutter, 3 MIGs (2 small ones, one large), stick welder, Torchmate plasma cutter, large and small gas torches, various fixed dollies for metal work, pinball machine, original Defender table game, shop stereo with 16 foot video projector and game consoles, Amana fridge large enough for a keg and a barbecue

    We're in the market for a horizontal metal band saw and a lathe. We might also get some more lifts and a fork lift. Since we are in an industrial warehouse, we also have 3-phase electrical, which is pretty cool, not that we really use it (except for the large MIG, compressor and plasma cutter).

    Chris.

    Default Tools in the shop

    Hi all,

    I have a Grizzly vertical/horizontal knee mill, a Grizzly 12" x 36" lathe, a Delta floor stand drill press, and a horizontal metal cutting band saw. This is all packed into a half garage car space along with two work benches.
    I sure like some of the shops I've seen on this site but they are just dreams right now.

    Cheers,

    Mike
