Hi all, i've been going to the local men's shed for a good few weeks now.
I've been asked to make up a wish list of new tools. All of the tools we have I'm pretty sure were bought
when the shed first started 15 years ago. A lot of them were bought second hand from people in the community
or from businesses that went bust or were updating their machinery.
My problem is none of the members have a woodworking background.
I could easily say lets just try and replace what we have but I feel that's a cop out on my part.
At present I'm thinking on these lines.
Chisels. we have some but by the look of them they've been used on everything but wood :-)
metal detector, we do use a lot of recycled wood with nails in.
Nail gun/guns. we have a compressor.
we have a bench router but not a portable one.
we have a table saw but everyone curses it when it's being used.
we have 4 dust extractors
I know its a big ask but I'm open, and hoping for any suggestions.
I know we have 2 rounds of grants coming up soon in our area.
