Doug's shop tour

Nice stuff Doug! Yeah the envy meter just pegged again!

Maybe Vaugh should include a sub category in the shop tours forum for "don't you wish you had a shop like this?" You, Tod and Marty would be founding members.

Thanks for the post

Jason and Jay thanks for the kind words. I just hate having to buy equipment and rebuy at a later date because I didn't get it right the first time. I'm struggling with that right now with the Ritter line boring machine.

Thanks Tod,

The Jlt is nice, not all of the clamps are exactly level with each other..I need to do some adjusting. Your more than welcome to come play!

I've been waiting for my shaper now for about two and half months. It arrived in North Carolina yesterday so I should be getting it next week. Then I'll be ready for door production.

Ok Doug,

You've crossed the line now. I think I'm gonna go hang my head in shame and refrain from ever posting anything about my shop again... :huh:

Jeez, I want access to your checkbook...:dunno:

That's one FIRST CLASS line up in your shop!!!! :thumb:

I'm with tod...I think I'll get in touch with him and plan to a trip to the other coast...just so we can touch those tools! :eek:

Now quit posting, or I'll take up knitting or stamp collecting! :doh:

Sheesh...

Doug, with the quality of the tools that you are adding, I don't think I will ever be able to post a gloat again about one of my new tools. What a great shop you have there!

Thanks Frank for the compliments. Any new tool deserves a gloat. As you can see I like tools big and small alike. I really enjoy researching the different tools and reading what everybody has to say.

You and Tod are welcome in CA anytime...just wished I could get out there to Georgia. I know if I did I might want to come home and build a shop like yours.

cool scores doug! yell us more about the digital positioner.......is it a pusher like a tigerstop? will it interface with cabinetvision or the like? inquiring minds wanna know;)
 
Doug, how did you get this past the internet cops? This is one of the most blatant tool-porn posts that I have ever seen! :D

Sorry, that’s just extreme jealousy talking. Beautiful shop.
