I have a small shop consisting of a Grizzly TS, an old Sears band saw, several routers and power sanders, a plate joiner a wide variety of hand tools.
I am looking to start adding to the collection and am looking for recommendations.
I think my next purchases should be a cutoff saw of some type, a floor model drill press and a bench disk/belt sander.
Any recommendations on this list?
Let us deal with the cutoff saw first. I think I have to chose either a radial arm saw, a compound miter and or a sliding compound miter. I'd like to keep the cost to around $500. I intend to set up a fixed cutoff station along one wall of my shop.
Which makes more sense in a small shop setup?
Now for the Drill Press. I am thinking of a free standing floor model drill press that will see limited use at best. I am looking toward versitility and best bang for the buck. Recommendations are requested.
The table model disk/belt sander is considered for quick edge and shaping needs. Looking for recommendations here as well.
All opinions are welcomed and appreciated.
Thanks
Jim
