For the past several months I’ve been focused on the house & home; as well as a complete re-working of my shop. I decided to go all-in on my small shop, and upgrade to Felder equipment. My Delta Unisaw, Powermatic 6" jointer, and DeWalt 13" planer being sent to my nephew.

The shop upgrade was a massive undertaking: 3-phase electric; extending and making the DC more flexible and accessible; and, a detailed layout of fitting the large Felder equipment into 400 sq’. The logistics of getting the equipment into the shop and assembled; then developing new methods of work – utilizing the slider and the J/P combo – was time-consuming.

All-in-all: expensive, and the equipment is game-changing.

Regarding Forums, Lumberjocks is painful; though, I still go there, hoping to find someone asking a serious question; or posting that out-of-the-box project. Truth-be-Told, I’m just too busy to spend a lot of time at the computer.

Everyone, Do Take Care.
