What's the one tool that you don't have and would like to buy asap?

 

[BigJim]

A #45 or #55 Stanley hand plane with all the cutters.

 

[de-nagorg]

A bank account with infinite zeros, after a 1.:devil3:

But wait, you said buy right now.

That would be an entire tool store.

Does a backhoe count :surprise::biggrin2:


I'd have one if they were more affordable!

I think this is a Bailey, but would it work?

Now I am droolin on my keyboard, that is beautiful.

How to use it??? Probably a lost art, but it was on the Marketplace for $20, so I added it to my other Bailey collection of planes (#2-8)

Buddy you lucked out big time for $20, I would have torn my pocket off getting my billfold out to pay for that. lol You have a really nice collection of planes, I don't have a #2 plane but I have the rest of them. I need to clean and tune my #8 yet.

Do you have the full set of cutters for your #45? There are several videos on youtube showing how to tune and use the #45 but it is a tricky little dickens. From what I understand, the #55 is easier to use.

One reason I want a #55 more than the #45 is I bought some ceiling mold a couple years back at a close out and didn't buy enough. I had a couple of really tricky cut that ate a stick of it up. I can't find any more of this profile and figured I could make the other stick if I had a #45 or #55 plane.

I have a #46 plow with all the cutters but it doesn't make profiles and the cutters won't interchange. You are one lucky dude Larry.

No cutters, but I saw a full set on Ebay for like $56. I'd like to learn how to use it. I looked at it again, and mine is a 55, patent date 12/11/17

That #8 is a hog !!

I would love to have a good bench-top jointer and a bandsaw. Unfortunately I currently do not have the space for either. :sad:

A Jet 1221vs wood lathe. I miss turning.

 

[ratherbefishing]

I've wanted a nice band saw for a long time. Hoping that, once I get my new outbuilding built this summer, I'll have room. But I'll probably pick up a cordless recip or jig saw sooner.

 

[Mystriss]

hmmm I want a great many tools so it's hard to pick just one.

However, at this particular point in time I'd have to say it's the Leigh D4R Pro with the Isoloc Templates. Soo much cool:

Buddy you REALLY lucked out, the reason the #55 is named #55 is it has 55 different cutters or irons. You can make just about any kind of trim or profile with a 55. The 45 and 55 look a little alike but they are different in a lot of ways, the 55 has more functions, not just more irons. Once you get it tuned and get the hang of it, you will love that plane.

You will love it for making flutes, that is one reason it has two fences.

I have looked on ebay and those cutters/irons are not cheap. Some run pretty high especially when you multiply that times 55. A good set bought separately at $15 a pop would hit over $800. If I do find one complete, I will buy just the cutter or iron I need right then, that is some serious bucks. If they still have a full set for that price, I would be all over them.

Picked up a Milwaukee M18 Circular saw....Now I need the Miter Saw. Thinking the 10", possibly 12" will do the trick.

 

[raylo32]

I am sort of jonesing for an EGO 56v chainsaw. I have the batteries already for other tools and we have a bunch of junk trees to remove. Nothing too big, but up to 6" diameter or so. The saws come in 14", 16" and 18" sizes.

 

[Mystriss]

Okay, I've changed my mind given my current needs

I want a Corob molding head with all the blades so I can make my own molding trims.

It works kinda like a Dado blade for your table saw, except you can change out the knives for different profiles. Then you combine the knives together to make a ton of profiles - http://corobcutters.com/combokits.aspx
