Based on some of your previous posts, I'd recommend borrowing some tools or taking a class before you invest in a woodshop. You might want to make sure it's right for you before you spend a lot of money on some of this stuff. :cheers:

I agree N is too small , HO or bigger is correct ...
Here is a link to a idea I like ...

Oh that's nice. I didn't think of using a trestle design.
My idea was to have a clear acrylic as the platform, that way you could see through it.

Nice. I want mine in my gameroom, so this is a good pic:

I just need about 150-200 sqft more. Right now my shop is about 16' x 24'
I'd want a small paint booth and a dust free assembly area.
Right now i have most every tool that i could need (although that CNC looks really nice).
Current main tool set:
Milling machine
Lathe (metal)
table saw
jointer
planer
drill press
Band Saw
Shaper
belt sander (stationary)
scroll saw
lathe (wood)
air cleaner
router
jig saw
and pretty much every standard hand tool
Want:
Welding tools ( i know nothing about welding, but i should)
dust collection (machine is in place, but i need the piping)
spray paint supplies
a clean up crew ;D
