One thing missing from your workshop

[twigg]

If you could add one tool, or piece of equipment to your shop, what would it be. Add a second choice too if you like

 

In my case I would like a motorcycle lift. I am way past the point where kneeling on the floor is fun.

 

Please feel free to link this thread to anyone who might consider you at Christmas and Birthday

Horizontal band saw for me.

My small motorcycle lift works just fine for me.

About the only other thing that comes to mind that I sometimes wish I had is a Mig welder.

 

Not that I'd use it much but there have been times when it would have come in handy.

 

As for the second choice, gimme a paint booth and some quality equipment, including a few air brushes as I'd LOVE to experiment and learn more with custom painting.

I would like to have a nice table lift as well. That is something that I hope to add sometime this year.

Yah!! A welder would be nice!! So would a lathe! Or a milling machine! A lift would be nice but I get along OK with my mechanic's stool and besides, I don't think they make a lift for a trike...

Just the ease of removing the back wheel makes it all worthwhile

 

I think they all have a removable plate there ... make sure the one you get does.

 

Second the Mig Welder ... I'd add a lathe and milling machine, but I wouldn't use them enough.

heh!

 

We were tping at the same time

 

EDIT: A four post lift with a cross beam would take the trike

A Bridgeport Milling Machine and a paint booth

[hipshot]

My first vote would be for a larger garage itself. Just have a 2 car and not near enough room. Can't add on to the one I have so I guess a new place goes with it.

A real good 7 axis CNC Milling Machine... or better....

 

Maybe like the one in [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uh3wHR3z1IE&feature=related]THIS[/ame] YouTube video

well first i need a garage. as i live in an apartment

second thing i need is a full time mechanic who is willing to work for no pay just a hand shake a thank you and ice cream any takers on the second ?

[MidlifeVenture]

A Shop Smith Mark V and a time machine to make time to do all the things in my head.

[ragtop69gs]

4 post hoist and a tig welder would be tops on my list.

[Kirby]

I'd like to just have the shop for starters.

Got the garage, got most of the tools I need, got most of the know-how...but I don't have the time or the energy after working all day.

[Marcarl]

what I really need is a Phillips screwdriver that doesn't strip out the screw heads, a flat screwdriver that doesn't dig out parts of ones hand, and hammer that doesn't smash everything to pieces.

Ya, that's all,,,,,,, for now.

[Flyinfool]

I would really love to convert my mill to CNC 5 axis. I could then use the same controller to convert my Lathe to CNC.

 

Second thought would be a garage so that I can still work on the bike when the weather is bad.

[Guest Zak202]

A bike lift and maybe a drill press. I already have a great set of tools and a welder. The lift is definitely the next 'big' purchase.
