Re: 10K Machine Shop

“Approximately how much space do you think this would all take up?”

8’x 10’ would work, maybe a little less
Jan Cory in AZ mounted about the same equipment on 4’x10’ and it works great, very compact with power panel built in it makes for EZ-setup (240 V 1PH)
A single car garage would be a perfect 1-2 man shop
A two car garage and you have enough room for a team to build
It’s the old story more the more room the better!
Something I forgot to mention before is that the bigger machines are 240V 1PH the same as most household stoves or dryers
The amps are low enough that a 50 amp circuit will work.
Don’t forget the First Aid kit.
