I am going shopping tomorrow. :rolleyes:

“I would like to have a 15” thicknesser and a 6” jointer please”

“Do you want a drill press with that?”

“Yes please”

By next week, I will have a tablesaw, bandsaw, DC, thinknesser, jointer and drill press all sitting in the box.

I CANT WAIT ANY LONGER!! :mad:

Plus the goodies from Canada, wow July is going to be a huge month. Maybe I should have a garage warming party. :cool:

So, Wongo, when are you going to buy some timber??? :rolleyes:

And definitely go for at least 8" on the jointer.

Jeez it's fun spending other people's money :D

OK Zed, your perseverance has won my heart. :p You are right I will buy the 8” instead of the 6”.

But I think I will wait for the WW show in Sydney. I am hoping to get a good deal. :)

Wongo isn't getting carried away...this is no impulse purchase :rolleyes:

Now, if he were to suddenly decide that he also needs a wide belt sander and a morticer.....

Come to think of it Wongo, have you thought about buying a wide belt sander & a morticer at the same time...you should be able to hit them for a pretty good discount. :D

I don't know how you can go out and buy a few machines at once.

I have enough trouble deciding on one machine at a time. There is so much out there to choose from.

I can understand the thicknesser and the drill press, but why do you need a jointer to build boats? :confused:
