The shop is located at N. 7520 Market Street, Spokane, Washington in the Dennis Court Complex. I currently occupy both suites 1 and 2. 
The main panel saw in the shop is a Robland Z320 10 foot sliding table saw. It has a 7 horse main motor and a scoring blade for chip free cutting. Up to three sheets of material can be cut in one pass on the saw and movement through the blade requires very little energy. 
Measurements are entered with the large keypad shown in this photo. The data is sent to an electronic device that moves the fence to the desired position with absolute accuracy. 
Show here is a Blum mini-press. It is a multi-purpose machine that does european hinge boring and insertion; multi-spindle line boring (mode shown in photo); construction hole boring and RTA (ready to assemble) and KD (knock down) furniture hardware fittings boring. 
The main tablesaw for cutting solid wood is the Powermatic 10" Model 66. It has a 5 horsepower motor on 3 phase 208 volts. The Biesemer fence has a 54 inch travel. 
Across the table system to the opposite corner is the Delta 10" Unisaw. It has a 3 horsepower motor on 208 volts and is fitted with an Edge Tech tapered sanding disc. All solid wood parts that are cut on the Powermatic are edge sanded on the Unisaw to the precise width required. From here the workpiece goes to the Performax drum sander. 
The performax 22-44 drum sander will sand a workpiece up to 22" wide in a single pass and 44" wide by rotating the part 180 degrees. Grits range from 36 for thickness sanding to 220 for finish up. It takes less than one minute to change the grit. 
This is my Casadei K20/10R automatic edge bander. It will apply glue and edge banding to parts up to 2" thick. Any kind of material can be run through this machine such as wood veneer, PVC, plastic laminate (Formica), etc. It has a power feeder, pressure rollers, end trimmers and top and bottom routers. The workpiece comes out of this machine ready to go into the project. 
This is a fixed station motorized miter saw. It has speed fence stops on both sides and is very fast in accurately making multiple crosscuts. 
My 20" Jet bandsaw has been accurized and with the fence system shown allows easy resawing of solid stock. A variety of blade types and sizes allow cutting just about any curved shape. 
The Incra 3000 Professional Miter system alows locked indexing every 1/2 degree both left and right. 
The Williams & Hussey Planer / Molder has been a very valuable tool for the shop. I now make all my own moldings and in any wood type that I want. Knives for any profile may be obtained overnight. 
This is a new Rockler router table on a Jessem switched stand. The setup shown is for Incra Incramental dovetail and box finger joints in solid wood. A standard fence is shown on the shelf below that will convert to standard edge routing in seconds. 
This is my new Jessem router system with a master lift setup. The master miter slide is soon to be added. 
This is the new Porta-Mate miter saw work center. It has a power strip for other power tools; a snap on vise unit, extension bars with outfeed rollers and a worklight. Other modules may be snapped on and off as needed. This unit is used primarily in the field but may be set up quickly in the shop as an additional workstation. The entire unit collapses and forms into a handtruck with a wheel on the left end. 
This photo shows how compact this workstation really is. Note the snakeneck task light for those after dark cuts needed to get the job done. 
The 20" GeeTech Planer is a very powerful machine. By removing 1/16" of material with each pass I get a very smooth surface. 
My Woodtech 3 HP Shaper does a beautiful job milling almost any material. Shown here with the sliding table attached allows perfect cope cuts on the rail ends as shown. This piece will be a shaker door rail. 
This photo shows the shaper with the pattern cutter set attached. The shaker rail now has the groove for the panel. |
