Top 5 Favorite tools

After 6 years of being in the wood working business, here are my top 5 favorite tools. They are worth every penny. Every shop needs one of each of these five tools. 
The Makita Cordless Track Saw
Think of a table saw, only way more versatile. Its mobile, its light weight and its ease to use. Breaking down sheet goods on a job site, or in the shop are super quick with this track saw. Cutting awkward angles its a piece of cake. This amazing tool  makes long cuts much less intimidating. 

The Dewalt Cordless 18 pin nailer
Anytime I can get rid of wires, or cords, I'm going to do it. This pin nailer makes nailing anywhere easy. Suprisingly light weight for its oddly large size makes it less tiring for those long jobs when your up on a ladder. Battery life is also excellent, with dewalt claiming it can go 1000 nails before needing to be recharged. Ive never been on a job where its required charging . 

Makita 18V cordless Palm Router
First off, I love the safety measures of this router. Routers are one of the most intimidating tools I use, so I appreciate the attention to something like that. It requires a 2 button process to start, making sure you don't accidentally start it without your knowing. Its light weight, and compact making it great for mobility and trim routing (think table tops). 

Bosch Router Table
I was pleasantly surprised by the build quality of this router table. Very sturdy aluminum fence means increased accuracy and stability. The table surface is also steel and extremely sturdy. I love the ability to micro adjust the router from the table top rather than adjusting the router itself. It comes with 2 feather boards, which I thought was awesome, and also jointer attachments. While I have a jointer, I thought that was a really cool inclusion 

Graco TC Pro Sprayer
Spraying with hoses, or cords is annoying as it comes. I bought this with sole intent for mobile spraying, and it doesn't disappoint. There is no need to thin the material, which is often times tedious and precision work not best suited for off site. Also, its comes with FFLP (Fine Finish Low Pressure) tips, which means way nicer coats are laid down. It has a material gauge 1-10 to control how much material you spray as well, amking it easy to adjust and avoid overspraying and dripping. 

Added bonuses is it can spray both latex and solvent based products, accepts most FFLP tips AND the pumps are replaceable.
