Hi Gang, Heres some background. I work in my garage(SHOP!!) and I have a nice
50" Jet TS and an old Dewalt RAS and crappy ryobi router. Lately I have had delusions of grandeur, thinking about doing some more serious side work. I have a commission to do 7 small carts and another to do an entertainment center. These are from the same client. I am in a position to invest in the shop a bit and I can justify about $5-$600. Im thinking of getting a 2hp Dust collector (Shop Fox), a Triton 2-1/4 HP Router, and a forrest WWII blade.Im getting a PC nailer set out of what I make for these 7 carts. i dont have a jointer or planer but I dont have much need for them at this moment. Althought I do have a bunch of raw Black Walnut boards that need planing. My work is pretty varied. A bunch of cabinet stuff, but I want to get into some fine blanket chests, furniture n stuff.
Im open to other suggestions. Help me spend my money!
