It’s a small hanging wall cabinet (approx 11” x 24”), with a door that has a book-matched panel and a glass window above.
Two of the coolest machines they have is a large bandsaw and huge planer they got from an old Arizona Class battleship when it was decommissioned. The planer takes 12 minutes to spin down when you turn it off. Having a 12” jointer kind of spoils you.
Palomar College has a fairly well known woodworking program and an incredible shop, well it’s really several well equipped shops, including a large CNC shop, and several bench rooms, their own saw mill with a large lumber drying structure, and more.

My classes are Saturdays from 8am to 2:45pm, with a 45 minute lunch. They run their own a rough lumber yard with better prices than you can get in town, even with the discount the outside lumberyards give students.
It’s a fun day in the shop.
