woodworking "beehive" shop ?

[nhbeekeeper]

berkey yes i am going with the bridgewood. i really like the grizzly but i really like what i am seeing with the bridgewood products and i have been talking with a pro woodworker who has both brands and he is sold on bridgewood. that was icing on the cake.

i was debating on a cabinet vs contractor but their contractor grade is left tilt, 52" cast iron, 1.5hp with 2 dust shoots for $620.
the extra i save on goes towards getting their 15" planer

now all i need is a trailer full of cherry

Hitachi used to sell a combination 12 1/8” planer, and 6 5/8 joiner. It was a 3 hp unit with the joiner mounted on the side of the planer. It looked to be a pretty good machine.

I think you will be happy with your choice. Don't skimp on the blades, maybe you can get them to throw a good carbide thin kerf rip in.

well it all started out with the intentions of getting some tools to build beehives. the idea of building some hardwood furniture entered into the picture and my $1500 budget just about trippled haha

Table Saw - not sure if anybody is looking for a good saw but Rockler.com's has an in-store special on a 10" delta "industrial" cabinet saw for $899 with a free $50 gift certificate. this is a steal! the industrial saw version is the same as the "unisaw" but it is produced overseas.

i got a bunch of Jet stuff also (DC, BS, AC) with rebates and gift certificate combos so now i am pretty much set outside of an order i still need to place for 2 Yorkcraft tools from Wilke.

thanks for all the advice above you people are great.
