Those cabinets look really good.
And nice job finishing your labor first!

Between 485 & 705 SQ/FT Jar944's 3car cabinet shop.

Workspaces between 485 and 705 squarefeet.
That actually would have worked well, but never crossed my mind.
I have a odd 45 degree dead space "design element" that I'm eventually turning into a built-in cupboard with drawers below. It shares a wall with the laundry room so hopefully not too inconvenient to store the ironing board there.
My wife wanted a drop down ironing board that came out of the wall, but the only wall space left was taken by the pocket door.

Jar, there seem to be quite a few expensive ironing board cabinet solutions but Amazon seems to have a reasonably priced option that might fit somewhere in the laundry room or adjacent.
FB marketplace got me again. I've been trying to find one of these old omni-jigs for a few years.* one finally showed up yesterday. It needs cleaned up but it's just built better than anything you can buy currently. Solid steel eccentric cam clamps and a solid cast aluminum base. It's got to be close to 40lbs.
Compared to what's currently available from porter cable
*needed to be local and inexpensive.

And continuing with stuff I bought for the shop while looking online and holding a baby..
Browsing eBay yesterday and picked up a Schmidt innovator II raised panel head with three sets of knives
And a omas tenon head set (I think). Though it looks like it's missing the tooling sleeve. 10" diameter x 1" thick heads. Haven't been able to find the part number in the omas catalog so I'm guessing. 65mm bore is also a bit odd so it may have been a custom application.

It honestly brings me joy to see you get this stuff.OK, I may have a problem
Two more inbound
Or it could be that I'm relieved that it's off the market so I won't be tempted.
Great finds!

Who is not getting what they want with you making these purchases?
All useful things, in the long run saves you money by having the ability to make your own moldings, drawers, cabinets anything wood related....

I don't actually think I have a problem. (#thefirststepisdenial)
At least not with buying tooling. Now I may have a problem with trying to buy machines, and only due to space constraints. I just asked my wife if she was up for a 10 hour round trip to buy a jko hauncher. I have my eye on a 4 head push feed moulder that's semi local. If I only had about 4ksqft of shop space.

What are you going to do with all your equipment when you finish your house?
You're in good company!
Tooling additions like nice! I've bought some H3D heads for work and they performed well.
If you had a 4k sq ft shop I'd love to see what would come home! It's pretty crazy how cheap a 4 or 5 head Weinig Profimat can be picked up on auction or surplus sales, but they come with serious dust collection and power requirements that just aren't viable for even a lot of cabinet shops.
Oh if I had 4k.. let's see
Just off the top if my head.
A 23e
A buss or Whitney 30"
A Diehl SLR
A widebelt (minimum 37") bigger would be better
Edge sander something like a oakley h6
A door clamp/face frame table
A jlt (or similar) clamp rack
A stribig or Holz-her panel saw
A frame press
That's just off the top of my head.
How many things could you possibly have left to improve in your house?
He's married and now a father. The house will not be done till sold or the youngest kid is successful in pursuing their own rent for a couple years
How many things could you possibly have left to improve in your house?
Quite possibly every room/item/thing left in the house up to and including things I've already worked on.
I actually want to do a octognal/turned victorian newl post with matching balustrade and tangential continuous handrail. So then everything left in the house needs to be updated to match that..
Also this.
I've never lived in a "done" house even as a kid, continuous remodeling projects are normal to me. With the exception of right before its sold, it's "done enough". Now my wife has a slightly quicker expectation for things to be "done".

4k, you say, ummm.
Retirement sale,
It’s all gotta go
5mtr double ended mitre saw, a lovely bit of kit.
Can be boxed for shipping
Or how about a
Single ended Upvc frame welding machine
And lastly a
Multi point lock and handle drill and copy router
All going cheap.
TIA

Here is a custom built half hauncher/tenon cutter to do half the tenon cut. For $100, the motors and controls are easily worth that if one had a use for them.
www.facebook.com
Edit: price changed from $100 to 1500
Yeah it was 1500 when I looked. For 100 I'd be all over it. For 1500 I'd pass.
It's hard to tell the size of the notch it cuts, but for that price there are better machines.

Shipping might be the killer.
I could use a double ended miter saw, and I could find a use for the multi point lock and copy router.
Don't have the 4k sqft quite yet though, likely going to have to hold off..

Are you sure 4k sqft is enough?
is that 10hrs round trip?

Waiting on a couple pictures from the seller and capacity/ motor hp confirmation but my wife is on board with picking this up.
Its A baby 4 head push feed moulder, they dont get smaller than this. It looks like a 2"x4" model, seller thinks it's a 2x6.
Conventional corrugated heads, 1.25" spindles. 20-100 feet per minute feed. It's no proformat, but doesn't have the peripheral requirements of one either.

Nice looking moulder. You're going to need that extra 4k space at this rate!
Ok that looks sweet. Also looks like one of the biggest sawdust making and finger shearing machines I've seen in while lol. Reminds me why the few remaining pre 1990 vintage moulders at work have houses with interlocked doors around them so once they're running the noise and danger is locked behind doors

Fixed that for you.
I have both a baby and a "baby tenoner" though the tenoner is not the smallest available unlike the baby human and the baby moulder.
But to answer your question yes I still have it. I rebuilt all the heads and straightened the upper tenon head shaft.
The problem is that it was knocked over before I bought it and the inboard table way was cracked and bent. The othe major problem was when I was removing all the snapped off gib bolts in the main casting for the cope heads the casting cracked ans broke off. So it sits waiting for me to get back to it and either braze the cracked part back or machine a new section

You just can't help yourself can you? Showing off how big your head is....
How do the blades on the last one adjust, or don't they?
Do the top and bottom knives both cut at the same time? Is there overlap on them?
