Great question...I have to say I agree with most everyone here about the larger shop, more time, more knowledge, etc.
But just in case the tool fairy reads this thread...I'm pretty happy with what I have and I make do but I have really been wanting a Powermatic lathe (model #3520) and a Powermatic floorstanding drill press with all the bells and whistles. That's all for now :mrgreen:

A rich and devoted companion that loves the smell...
of wood and finish. Or least one that spends her own money and not mine. One that is smart and looks great dressed up and also in a shop work suit. One that can help lift all of the new tools out of the trailer, after buying them, and then fix us a nice glass of lemonade. One that makes it so I never have to think about what next tool do I want, because I can have anything I want.

Well, there is only one tool that goes right to the top of my power tool list.
Original Saw Company 3559 22" Super Duty Radial Arm Saw with 7 1/2hp 3 phase motor.
I can dream....

Jim - you're welcome to stop by and use mine any time...
Dave - you crack me up! :rotflm:
I'll have to think about what would be the ultimate tool to have on the wish list... Hmmm......
Scott
How about a Unisaw, a high end bandsaw, or a lathe? Too much ground to cover before I can scratch those from my list
A week ago I would have said a kapex 
Today I will say a felder cf 741 S Professional (and I would like it delivered in a 40'x40' air-conditioned crate)

5 axis machining center or a water jet. If I have to take 3rd prize it would be a CNC router table.
If the tooth fairy gave me the tools I'd figure out how to get the big shop. A big shop without the tools is just a big hole and then you have to spend your own money to fill it up.
Although a 50x100 building with a 800 sq ft 2br apartment built into it would suit me nicely. I wouldn't say no to one. Oh yeah, ocean front too.
If you think woodworking is expensive you should get into metal working. However in metal working if you cut it too short you can always get the welder out and make it long again.
Now back to reality and trying to figure out where I'm going to spend my $250 stimulus money (yeah right, who am I trying to kid).
