Hello All,

I was just wondering what other brands of machinery or tools you guys own? Some of mine are:
Porter Cable 247 circular saw, 690 router, jigsaw,

Delta 14" bandsaw and 32" radial drill press,

DeWalt biscuit jointer and Makita LS1011 SCMS

and ofcourse I would be lost without my New Ridgid TS2400 Table Saw.

Hmmm, this could take awhile, so I'll just list the brands and skip what they are.
Milwaukee, Dewalt, Ryobi, Delta, Freud, Porter Cable, JessEm, Central Machinery, and of coarse, LOTS of Ridgid.

I've been doing this a little while, and I'm a tool junkie besides. ;) I'll follow Woody's lead and list some brands. It surely won't be all of them.

Jet, Leigh, Incra, Performax, DeWalt, Porter-Cable, Festool, Craftsman (of course!), Bosch, Lie-Nielsen, Stanley, Record, Freud.

Goodness knows what else...

Hey Arbuckle,

Why don't you make it easy on yourself and name the brands you DON'T have. I'm sure this will be a much shorter list ;o)

Best regards,

Henry

Not really, take a look down the other guy's responses. I did leave out that I have one lonely Delta tool. It identifies with the Ridgids due to color.

Dave :D
Thinking of getting a Metabo drill so's I can add them to the list...

Woodslayer,

I HATE GREEN, everthing that grows nearly is green so I like a contrast to look at in the shop.

However...I am considering the Grizzly cyclone, BUT, it will be tucked away in a seperate addition where you can't see it!

Ridgid
Dewalt
Bosch
Dewalt
Craftsman
Dewalt
Metabo
Dewalt
Porter-Cable
Dewalt

Guess by now most of the guys out there know i favor dewalt, but they were out long before Ridgid and i have a heavy investment in them, but as they fail i am replacing them with ridgid When i find they were still made in the U.S.

Just can't beat that lifetime guarantee of Ridgid's.

happy woodworking guys
