cad for shop layout

I use Sketchup for pretty much everything. I had to try to get across some ideas for the mechanical package for a product I'm doing at work. We didn't have an ME assigned to the project, yet, so I made the drawings in Sketchup, just to get the idea across.

Which is why I use Sketchup. I have better things to do than learn yet another inconsistent software package.

I'm certain that the learning curve will be tough for him on most anything. He can't punctuate, he probably does not have the ability to learn.

Grizzly has a workshop layout feature on their website. Includes footprints of most if not all of their power tools...

own exactly one grizzly tool

but that is a good offering from them

scale cutouts work well too

A Grizzly table saw is not likely to be too different than a Ridgid in size. A Jet Bandsaw is likely to be almost exactly the same size as a Delta or a Grizzly.

The tool is useful even if you don't own their tools.

As a blanket statement, that's not true.

Ridgid has a very limited selection of table saws, while Grizzly has numerous models, some requiring some interesting floor space.

I agree with both of those statements. ;-)
