GM folks, after going on a tear to "rebuild" my previous shop after a recent move into a new home that I built - I've taken a step back and doing a little soul-searching and come to the conclusion, that at this point in my life, I've really just fallen into the trappings of the "hunt" (i.e. the acquisition and setup of new tooling, w/ no real plans - or time quite frankly, to do much with it, again, at THIS stage of my life). In the meantime, I've got a garage full of very nice - to mid/top shelf tools/ materials - many of which I snagged from you guys, that I'll be tripping over, and my boys will be crashing their bikes/ scooters into, ha for the next several years for no real practical purpose.
I'll be hanging onto the "basics" of course, and all of my framing/carpentry tools will be staying, but taking personal inventory, in the throws of building my business, I am at least 7-10 years out from a realistic expectation of any time to get into real "fine" woodworking or cabinetry, so I'll be passing that somewhat specialized equipment along.
I cringe somewhat at the prospect of throwing this stuff on Craigslist, or Marketplace, so would much prefer to start here, and as such, will be getting a master list together in the coming week/weeks. I will say, that there really is no "junk" in the pile here, and everything will be priced fairly to "cheap", as I snagged a good bit of it from members here in the past year for the same.
I'll be sticking around the forum of course, and will always play around w/ "small projects" I'm sure - and am confident that the time will come that I setup another shop, when I slow down a little, but w/ a growing international business, and 2 boys under 10, just time to be a bit more realistic w/ my hobby endeavors.
Thanks!
