Re: 10K Machine Shop

I have a 7' x 12' "one man shop" at home, and here's what I have in it:

8x14 lathe
CNCed Benchtop Mill (5"x11" XY travel)
Small Floor Standing Knee Mill (about 4.5"x14" XY travel, about 800lbs)
10" drill press
14" band saw
4HP 29 gallon compressor
40" tool box
Two upright floor standing cabinets
8 foot by 20" deep workbench, with vice, and two 2-foot wide under bench cabinets/drawers

Tucked away in another area, I have a 12" sliding miter saw. Still need a good sander.

It's pretty tight, but I do quite well in there.
