Now that looks good, and the best part is the shelf below the table where a sixpack of Foster's can be placed. Bue--.   :bigsmyl:

I gotta get my shop done first.

That looks like a nice one. Is that the one you have? That's why I want to have a few 220v outlets in there.

Yes I have that one. It is a powerful machine. Yupper on the 220 volts.

I wasn't aware that this model was available there, what with U.S.a  being 110v etc so that's something I've learned.   :thumbsup:

Isn't that a little overkill for building bows. .?  1 1/2 hp. that is a Monster........   :scared:    I once used one and my piece somehow got side cocked against the belt, it threw the piece of wood flying and caught my finger which tore off the end of my finger tip.... like a chunk of meat was hanging there.    :eek:

You can never have too much horsepower!    :bigsmyl:  
I've gotten too enthusiastic and stalled my little belt sander a few times.
