Title: Woodshop Tools Catalog
Post by: ahr8tch on March 21, 2009, 08:28:31 PM
Many years ago in a galaxy . . .   oops!

When I was first active here, I remember asking about incremental catalogs and gaining a catalog of woodshop tools that included table saw, drill press, planer, jointer, miter saw, etc.  That was a long time and several computer crashes ago and the standard master catalog doesn't seem to include them.

Could anyone point me in the right direction?

TIA

Google is usually the best place, but some cost money although many are free. Beware of size too as some detailed ones will clog the memory and make things slow.

I have zipped a Drill Stand and other a few other tools I have collected along the way. They are separate as the stand is large and I cannot get the forum to accept them in one file. The Cordless Drill (in Tools.zip) is one I made from bits and pieces within the program (V11).  You can make anything virtually within TFP with a little imagination.  For clues how to go about making your own items try these topics (ignor the headings - point is covered further down the threads):

Hope the zips and ideas help.
