..Kev Posted June 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Used the last big drawer to store some routers and their accessories.. Leaves 2 drawers for Drum Sander paper and accessories.. Won't fill those until after the machine arrives and I see what I actually need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just a hobby shop so, having an arsenal of routers so that I don't have to change bits just doesn't fit my needs. I am contemplating one more drill tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk I have 3 but, it just seems that I'm always changing something.. Would have the apex, countersink, and pilot left set up all the time and then the 4th would be for what ever else cropped up.. Lazy! I admit it!

I like FT but, not going there. My Dewalts work awesome and I don't need another charging system and want nothing to do with a systainer for a drill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chet Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Is that the Bosch 1617? I have been kind of looking at that off and one for a hand held router plus I don't have a plunge router. Does it have any kind of dust collection capabilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only down side is that it doesn't have the DC that the FT does. So, not counting DC, I like it every bit as well as my FT OF1400!

Also, outside of the dust collection, there's really only one "game changer" and that's the domino. It's nice stuff, I'm not going to lie. But, outside of the DC, there's a lot of ways to get the job done just as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wouldwurker Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 And, pulling the dado stack out of it's holder is a PITA so, it needed a home as well.. Inlayed. Can never have too many throwing stars 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is easy to spend money after seeing some of the things people do on here. I swear some of the guys on this site are ninja secret power tool reps that get a commission off of every new tool thread we post here. We all know shane is a secret festool rep. That being said there have been a lot of things I've read here that have changed the way i think about things in my shop and have been worth the extra investment. I'm going to say thanks to Kev for the idea about rigid insulation for drawer organization, I'm totally using that someday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ..Kev Posted June 9, 2016 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Well, there is is, all complete! Sander is up and running and just waiting for the new DC piping! Huge "THANKS" @Llama for getting some measurements to me early enough to have the stand ready to go! Hope some people got a few things here that they can use in their shops! 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some in my garage that I've been using with track saw. It broke and can no longer be used for that but I can sure as heck cut it up for foam inserts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
