We asked the followers of our Instagram what they would buy for their shops if they won the MegaMillions lottery…and here were some of our favorite answers:
Give away everything I have now. And…start a renewable wood farm. Maybe 10,000 acres in Canada to grow the best hardwoods around. -@dkg_images
A building, with plenty of room for everyone who wants to build, and create but cannot afford the tools or the space. – @ej.leclair
The entire Festool collection. -@jasonjackson32
CNC and vehicle lift. -@weavil987
Complete sets of vintage chisels, vintage hand planes, a new wood lathe, a bandsaw, a new table saw, floors, a vacuum kiln and a dust system. -@squire_specialty_cuts
That’s easy. A cleaner that comes in every day. Oompa Loompas will do. -@tacomacarpentry
I would build a 40x15x10′ workshop. Then install enough solar panels to power all my tools at the same time and also have enough back up battery power to last me a month without any sun. Then I would insulate it and have all the air filtration systems to make the air clean. I would make it sound proof so that I can do work at any crazy hour that I want. Also have a small porch/deck to enjoy my cold beer that will be coming out of my tap dispenser. I think that’s enough for starters. -@therustikcut
I would like a 1200mm drum sander please. -@barejoinery
A dust collection system, CnC router, plotter, printer, industrial sewing machine, and a big ass shop truck. I mean I’d have to think about it. -@candhcreates
First I’d donate half to schools to bring back wood shop class, then I’d buy everything to have the most awesomest shop ever. -@forevermoore5150
I’d double my employees salaries. -@gm_reclamation
