Initiated a new woodworking shop endeavor last week and have "anything
goes" on electrical from the contractor and wonder where the "typical"
power source is for the TS whether 110V or 220V. Currently have 110V
TS and it was plugged into a ceiling receptacle and was happy with
that not having to step over a cord on the floor but inquiring minds
wonder what other alternatives exist. Got the X10 for dust collection
that was utilizing the same circuit and enjoyed it muchly. Small
compressor can use either voltage but will probably convert to 220V
for efficiency. Shop/garage will be 24X30 with 9' ceilings with half
bath and drain board/sink adjacent and 3 windows with 18' garage door
and person door. Anxiously awaiting completion! Anxiously awaiting
responses also.
Can't address the power question, but if this is a 'clean paper' setup and
the slab hasn't been poured yet, I'd tuck a 3x3 shower stall in that half
bath, especially if there is a SWMBO in the picture. If you are doing a big
project and get all sweaty and sawdust covered, they get real cranky when
you track that into the house. If this fancy shop isn't at home, it is real
nice to be able to clean up before meeting people for dinner.


And it's be good to have a phone in there too. Maybe one of those you
can answer without touching it.
