Thanks Ernie hehehe
its actually a cheat way of doing things. plano ko nga dapat naka dado yung shelves, but i have been preoccupied lately to make a dado jig (kainis din kasi kailangan ko pa mag binondo para bumili ng wing nut)
Naka screw lang lahat except for the 2x4 block thing that the second shelf sits on. the second shelf isnt even fixed, tight fit lang (problems will come out later until i make it fixed)
Its not really the right way of holding some of the tools. but its the best i can think of para matapos in one night 🙂

Re: newbie here and my workshop!!
question mga sirs,
saw this reasonably priced, 2nd hand ryobi table saw and drill press, am interested in purchasing it for my first set of power tools, but was told by some hardware staff that ryobi parts are hard to come by here in the philippines and repairs can be quite problematic. . . how true is this?
any advice on this purchase?
thanks
Re: newbie here and my workshop!!
Bro you're off topic. Next time feel free to make a new topic if you can't find an existing topic appropriate for your question. Hakakahiya kay Mr. Bee who "own's" this topic ... though I'm sure he won't really mind.
To answer your question, yes what the hardware staff store said is probably true. I own several Ryobi tools - a thickness planer, a circular saw, 2 belt sanders, and maybe some other too. They work ok for me and use the first two a lot. To solve the problem of spares, I keep several "spare" units to get parts from and oil them as often as I can get myself to. Also, I like fixing tools.
If you are starting out, the first power tool you should buy, IMHO, is a corded electric drill, the rest should be hand tools. It is best to start with hand tools which you will always need anyway but also to give yourself time to learn. You don't have to master the hand tools just give yourself long enough to learn.
Oh by the way, welcome.

i think there is a five "reply post" rule here in the forum before you can post your own topic

pasensya sir. naaliw lang ako sa thread.
already have a B&D electric drill and quite a few hand tools.
am a bit pre-occupied and fixated right now with acquiring my first table saw and drill press (and perhaps a router), parang a five-year-old's sleepless nights for his next matchbox city set or new gi joe, or an audiophile awaiting delivery of his new vacuum tube amp ang feeling, hehe. . . and also, to re-launch my interest in woodworking.
sensya na ulit for the wrong post, excited lang.
been reading a lot and learning a lot here.
thanks
Re: newbie here and my workshop!!
No problem for me ... and I'm sure everyone here knows exactly what you are feeling.
Like I said just be careful when buying those Ryobi tools. I did I mention that I built a table saw before? I wouldn't recommend it with tools becoming affordable nowadays.
Have fun and keep us posted.

you built a table saw? i was contemplating on under mounting a bosch 10" circular saw.... but it sorta costs as much as a jet table saw hahahah
Rolly
I have an advice . If i had to buy my tools again , these are the things i wont buy,
-power planer
-jig saw (never really used, it WONT cut straight and the slice of the wood WONT be straight unless you are turning it constantly , i have a black and decker entry level)
And if i had to relive my tool spree and have budget for 5 power tools here are the stuff i will buy first
- COMPUND miter saw (pare... when i first used this, i was kicking myself for waiting so long to grab one)
and if you have the budget , grab a sliding compund miter saw. Jet has one for 12K ata.. but be very careful. The best so far is the Makita ls1013 i think.... 25K++ *ouch* or 30K??? cant remember. My vision darkened when i saw the price eh
-cordLESS drill (you need the torque chuck kasi, or youcan attach a torque chuck sa corded drill )
-BIG PLUNGE Router, and i will build a router table agad (versatility of this on a router table is limited only by your imagination). Dont go cheap on a complicated tool such as this, i learned the hard way. Unfortunately we are really just stuck with the makita 3612c, awesome tool though, timber has one too. If you are lucky you may find an AEG, but electrowerks/tools from US has not been stocking these.
-circular saw - just make a jig.. then you will ALWAYS make striiiiiiiiight cuts
-Small router (mainly used for edge work, i use the gmr1 which is small but has enough punch for other than edge trimming)
As you can see the table saw is not in the first five. but table saw is awesome too... If i were you.. and you are looking at local alternatives.. dont buy the JET JTS10 i bought. you can try the JET 315s and see the quality difference. but the 315s only has one sled slot so limited ata jigs mo for it bit its left table is a sliding table, so may instant cross cut sliding table ka. Or pay a little more and get the makita mlt100 (30+K ata, )
Cheers!
Re: newbie here and my workshop!!
beebeenator,
thanks for the significant insights. will take note of all these as i slowly acquire my first toys.
was in hmr earlier and there are a great load of ryobi tools . . . compund mitre saws, routers, etc. prices ranging from 7-9k. .
anyway, mr beebeenator, i really admire your workshop, titira rin ako ng ganyan sir, pero mas maliit, matapos sana in 2-3 months.
slamat sa lahat
Re: newbie here and my workshop!!

Yup did not quite finish it but I did use it until I inherited my current table saw. This is what is left of it.
At the time, 1999 or 2000, the only power tool I had was a drill that I eventually destroyed trying to use as a router.
I think it is feasible to put a circular saw under a table and have a table saw. I've seen it actually done. A fellow in our boat building group build, if I remember correctly, a 30' long hollow wooden mast for his boat using it. He even cut the birdsmouth joints with his makeshift table saw. Me I used a router when I something similar.
Re: newbie here and my workshop!!
i moved my bench away from the wall of tools
created a more practical space so when i have a piece on top of the workbench i can go around it :)]
