So I've been saving up the couch change for a while and finally hit my $$$ amount for the new toys... I'm pretty excited :D

The shop's getting outiftted!

Here's what's been ordered thus far:

-Hobart Handler 140 (stuck with 110V for now :roll: )
-Jet Vertical/Horizontal Bandsaw :D
-Dewalt HD Chopsaw
-2 big wilton vises
-8" Ryobi bench grinder
-2 more 4 1/2 angle grinders
-JD2 model 3 tubing bender :D :D :D
-1.75" bending die
-another jigsaw
-Bolt-on dimple dies :D
-tubing clamps


Still looking for "the one":
-stationary drill press
-hydraulic press


I'll get some pics of everything once it looks like more than a pile of half-opened boxes piled up :lol:

How big of a drill press are you wanting?
I'm sure it's bigger than the little 9 inch I have.

I didn't see a gas cylinder in the list. You going to use flux core or invest in a tank?

I just bought a 110 MIG myself. I'm looking to buy a 80cf tank for shielding gas. Been using flux core so far, but too dirty and way too much splatter.

Once I made the jump to gas, I will never go back to flux unless I absolutely have to.
