Prayers
That You will ditch all that ryobi stuff before calling yourself a woodworker
Sorry the Truth is like that I’ve been using the Ryobi stuff for years and haven’t had a problem out of it. I have probably 20+ of their tools. Only thing that has died is 2 of the 4 year old 2 MAh batteries. I was on a job with a cabinet guy. Every morning he told me how his Delta was better than my Ryobi. But every afternoon he finished the day with a Ryobi. I went to Milwaukee M12 about 5 years ago because they are compact. Dont ask me how many batteries I have bought!
If the 2nd amendment was written just to include guns for hunting, why is there not an amendment to protect fishing poles?

I’ve thought about switching to Ridgid when my ryobi goes out. But none have failed yet so will continue to use them. Think Milwaukee, Ridgid, and Ryobi are all owned by same company.

Doesn’t matter. That $399 DeWalt dual compound, sliding saw does it all and does it dang well. I can run the snot out of one.
Nice job on the vac set up man!
Man if I knew what Oxner knows I could throw away what I know

Like what your doing and your passion for it.
So please let me say to you: Talk to me before your next purchase. 20 years of woodworking, furniture etc blah blah. no big deal really.
You mentioned Rigid. ok. That is Emerson Electric. for many years they have built in the USA, lower cost tools for Sears, and ?? price point tools. Been to one of their factory's. Avoid. They also import run of the mill Chinese stuff. Some things like a floor drill press...ok same as so many. until you need a new chuck key. none others fit. loved it when home depot employees would tell you they own it. the he** they do. outright lies. lol!
quick run down of the brands I have used and have been either amazed at their quality and how well they work, or just happy enough to mention.
Routers: Dewalt. Big ones and medium sized. Makita. Bosch. Planer Jet and Grizzly. they are the same. go 15inch or go home jointer 6" jet. happy. 8" grizzly not happy. sold it. table saw Jet 10" cabinet saw full blown, left tilt. LEFT TILT. LEFT. NOT RIGHT. bought a ryobi floor model table saw once. took it back two days later. got a delta 10" floor . outgrew in a short time got the jet used on CL. Bandsaw. you can get by with various 14" models. but Grizzly has good ones in the 17 and up. son of a gun the 19 I had was one great working machine esp for resawing wood for turkey box calls lol.
Sanders: Bosch. Porter cable small finish 1/4 pad is ok. Porter cable gets no love from me other wise. noisy azz routers. crappy battery powered drills. Jig Saw. Bosch. OMG what a jig saw. cuts like a dream. 5/4 white oak. Aluminum.... lol
Dear Friend, if you spend good $$ on building 22 rimfires...would you put a 600 dollar stock on a marlin 60 ??? LOL! (maybe) would you take a Marlin 60 on a first date ?? NOOOOOOOOO put the same attitude towards tools of a lifetime that will truly make you very happy how they outperform. It is not brand snobbery, its brand realization.
use what ya got. it can be a lifetime avocation. upgrade when u can. I no longer have any of my floor mount WW tools, lol. !! just Metal working. Another world of chinese made hurt. peace out.
Forum says "Veteran Tracker". I could not track a garbage truck into a fireworks factory.

He sticks with these ideas about as long as Buzz sticks with a rifle, he doesn’t need to spend money on quality tools since he will sell them all next month.

but I did get some decent shirts out of the last venture Lol I'm not really looking to make money off this one, this is more of a hobby and for fun. Shirt business was super small profit margin when you're not printing them yourself. Once I started doing it myself I remembered why I outsourced it in the first place LOL. Just wasn't for me.

The table top height is 42” I got some leveling feet off of Amazon and drilled the 4x4’s and installed them to level it all out since my garage floor slopes down towards the door.

looks like he has a little woodworking talent and graphic design talent. I will leave it at that. been watching a guy build his dust collection system on another forum and thinking about one for myself but as someone said earlier about kroyal, I would prolly sell the stuff in a couple of months.
