- Lathe: (https://amzn.to/3orYsOy) this Laguna lathe is freaking amazing, very well built, solid, strong, variable speed, 110 or 220 volt. I couldn't have designed it better. This Wen lathe was my first trusty starter lathe, great place to start this hobby: https://amzn.to/3aqIIGH
- Lathe tools: (https://amzn.to/3agd3ay) carbide tip, (https://amzn.to/3t5iMsA) great beginner set
- File Sander: (https://amzn.to/36o3hlE), this is the cheapest and highest quality I've found. Fantastic for those hard to get to sanding projects.
- Carving tool: (https://amzn.to/2MjTd6x), Rotozips are awesome, a little too powerful for small detail but great for roughing out the medium sized projects.
- Angle Grinder: (https://amzn.to/36lgewG), one of my most indispensable tools, (https://amzn.to/3iXtNHW) the flat head helps get into tight spaces, carving and sanding disks are a life saver.
- Grinder Carving Disk: (https://amzn.to/39oWqKG), this is a really great disk for roughing out medium sized projects
- Grinder Sanding Disks: (https://amzn.to/3cj91Rv), fantastic for sanding and minor-moderate shaping stages
- Round Sanding System: (https://amzn.to/3r11N8Q) sleeves go around an inflatable ball (https://amzn.to/2KVCUvW )or make your own foam ball, attaches to a drill, great for tight corners.
- Palm Sander: (https://amzn.to/3r1mJg8), the most important sanding tool, used on almost every job. I like the size of the sand paper for both this and on the lathe by hand.
- Chain Saw: (https://amzn.to/2MbWNj2), has worked well for years, I also bought this electric one (https://amzn.to/3qZOqpp) for the quieter in the garage projects
- Oscillating Tool: (https://amzn.to/3puK4q1) great for cutting and sanding sharp corners and tight spots.
- Super Glue: (https://amzn.to/3pFg5vT) thin and runny, perfect for stabilizing bark or other unstable wood.
- Resin: TotalBoat.com has been gracious enough to donate resin for my future projects, given them some love! You can get 15% off using my code: preece15
- Pigments: https://amzn.to/3sYC5ng, great quality for resin
- Pressure Pot: (https://amzn.to/3tfp1u2) 5 gallon for the big resin projects to get rid of bubbles, or (https://amzn.to/3pwX0M8) for the smaller average jobs 2.5 gallon, both need minor modifications to work.
- Protection: (https://amzn.to/39t3lm0), best face shield yet for carving and lathe work. Respirator: HIGHLY recommended for wood and resin work, speaking as a Dr, I'm telling you to protect those lungs: https://amzn.to/3tqYWbA and those ears: https://amzn.to/3qa9xW2
