Re: Tools needed for custom kitchen building


 

Thanks Imran,

I agree that it is cramped :) and you have a lot of unused spaces.

I just have rough ideas now, but the center of the room has to be free in my mind to allow for passage or for your assembly table/cart on casters. Tools should only be located on the perimeters and one corner used for storage. Like 4 walls should allow for 4 big machines at least and if you stack your separate jointer planer you can push up to 5, assuming your room is wide enough to stack them and still have space in the middle. You should still have some free corner for DC and other stuff. I know that many shop put their table saw in the middle, but I do not see that as an advantage with a 10 ft slider.

In my current garage I have the RL140 in line with the slider (2500) on one single wall and it is really good in term of space usage. The jointer/planner combo is on the adjacent wall. Like RL located after the outfeed table for slider -? slider - combo located on the infeed side of the slider but at 90 degree. I measured recently and I can still put a 10 slider with RL140 and combo planer/jointer for at least 9ft long stock in the same position as my current tools.
