I'm a recently retired hobby knife maker, running a stock reduction shop in my half of a two car garage. Your use of space, as well as level of technology is rather impressive!

Nice shop! You should look into investing in a cutting laser for blanking you're blades. It's much more efficient than machining them out.

Big improvement from a garage door to the door in a wall. The space is much better. Now keep designing and making your incredible knives! You might find folks willing to pay more for custom laser engraving on their knives. And maybe you can put a link to your website in the video?

for a starter machine would you go with a tormach or syil if you had to get one?

That is an amazing setup! Is the wall you installed (where the garage door was) removable? Just wondering how you get machines in and out.

I have the room to add about as many machines as I want to, but I only have a 200amp drop to my house and wonder if I have enough power to make a shop like this. The house is only 800sf and doesn't use much power, but a lot of these machines seem to need several 40+ amp lines...
@tj.schwarz
Жыл бұрын
I have a 200amp drop to my whole house as well and it is plenty for this setup. The Syil has a 50 amp breaker but it doesn't even remotely come close to using that. In fact I'm embarrassed to say this but the whole shop in this video (minus the heater) is running on one 60 amp breaker to the sub panel and I've never popped it.

The X7 wins by a mile in essentially all use cases. The Tormach is a decent little machine, though, for certain things, and we still use it daily.

First off, thanks for your support! Your order is part of the current batch I'm machining and will ship as soon as possible. I am 2+ months out right now from the day of the purchase and am getting that lead time shorter and shorter with the new machine running and the shop getting in order.
