List of tools

Post by michelounet »

Hi,

Just joined the forum but have been reading here and on the subject for a while.

I am trying to put together a list of tools that one would require to build skis assuming access to a CNC machine and a press.

What do you think?

Here's what I've got that works for me in a not so big garage:

Miter Saw
Table Saw
Surface Planer
Jigsaw/Saber Saw
Router
Drill/Driver
Base Grinder
Lots of bar clamps
Spring Clamps
Fabric Cutter
Binding Jig
Angle Grinder
Whole bunch of ski tuning hand tools

Everything I have gets set up and broken down so I can still park cars in the garage. Hollow core doors and saw horses make great portable work stations.

Thanks very useful.

I know it takes a bit more space but what about a band saw? I was thinking of using it for core profiling but I could use it also for what the miter and table saws are used.
