Questions:

Just thought I would share this with you. I have been playing with the free version of Fusion 360 for 3D modeling but have never pulled the trigger on the subscription due to the price and this being a low level side hustle for me.

However, I just found out you can create student accounts if you have a child 13 years or older. I have twins so I created a student account for each of them. They use one account for the software Revit (more of an architectural modeling software) to create DnD maps and things like that. (You may have guessed we are kind of a nerdy family.) I am using the other account and digging more into Fusion 360.

I’ve got a $350 Amazon gift card and I’m looking to put it toward my workshop. One idea is to upgrade my DeWalt 735 planer with a Shelix helical head. The only catch is, I’m planning to upgrade to a 15” Grizzly floor model in the next year or so, and I’ll likely sell the DeWalt when I do.

I also have a Ridgid 6” straight knife jointer I could upgrade with a helical head, but eventually I’d like to move up to an 8” jointer.

So if you were in my shoes, would you put the money into upgrading either of these, knowing they’re both temporary? Or would you invest it somewhere else in the shop like a track saw?

Here is my question about moving shops. Going to be moving to a bigger space, but also a smaller space. Have to fit a car in our new one car garage. The basics of the question would be, if you would sell the tools you barely use and buy new when you need them or make the trips to make it work? Also, what types of projects would you want to build to make some quick money in your "free time"? I start back school in August, I'm a Music teacher.

Enjoy that audio file, although I believe I'm a lot smarter than Brick Tamland... I do hold a Bachelor and Masters degree in Education... so, not by much! LOL

Whats on our bench: 🎶

Pete is expanding the garden, reworking the outdoor space with some new landscaping, got to play around with some timber framing with pressure treated wood and attended the Call Me Maker event.

Dan had to lay off his help due to a lack of work coming in, got some custom work coming in, and designed a new table base.

Braden did a craft fair with Dan and it was a flop, building a plinko board, making a set of white oak built ins with Dan, and lining up a bunch of jobs.
