Last weeks new shop additions

Last week I was able to pick up some new (to me) tools from another tenant in my building. They included a big gear driven powermatic scroll saw, an oscillating drum sander (4hp!) an old Atlas/Craftsman drill press a commercial paper shear ( i will use it for composites and veneers.) and a 50" x 50" x 2"+ solid maple bench top.
I am now starting to run out of room and need to optimize.
