Come on SawStop, Scott's workshop deserves a saw, his channels are superb.

Great list. I also purchased a Makita corded multi-tool recently, and it's one of those "How did I survive without this?" tools.

Not a power tool but looking at the wall behind you, I definitely need to up my clamp game.

Best advice is to go with corded tools verses battery. As soon as the revised model comes out the model you have is obsolete, and batteries may not be available. the only battery tool I have is a flashlight or drill. I don't have a 5" or 6" orbital sander. Of the portable sanders, I do have 4 detail sanders, 4 belt sanders, 4" and a 1/3 sheet square sander. In the last four years I only used my portable planer three times. Keep the videos coming.
