Three Important Tools to suppport Scroll Sawing

[budprine]

I was thinking about what tools I use in support of my scroll sawing.  I'd think it interesting what others use.  Here are my three most important:

1. Drill Press  (for making starter holes)
2. Oscillating Spindle Sander  (Finishing Prep.)
3. Band Saw  (Cutting large stock down & Resawing)

What do you think?

I guess it would depend on what kind of work you use your scroll saw for.  But for me, I find the following indispensable:

Drill Press
Router or Laminate Trimmer (I use a laminate trimmer because I do smaller stuff and it is easier for me to handle)
Dremel

I guess if I only had to choose three that would be the list, but I find that I also need a hand-held orbital sander and several other things for both prep and finishing.  (It's kind of like asking a parent which child they love the most!!! LOL)

1)Proxxon Mini Precision Drill/Grinder and matching drill press
2)Combination disc/flatbed sander
3)Airbrush and compressor

I can't name just three. So my list :
1. Table saw for cutting wood to size.
2. Band saw for re-sawing.
3. Planer for planing to thickness.
4. Jointer to joint edges to glue up large panels.
5. Various sanders: Random orbital, mop sander, 3x8 inflatable pneumatic sanding drum, oscillating spindle sander.
6. Drill press, And of course my scroll saw!

You guys forgot the most imortant resources of all:  Access to Steve Good's Blogsite, a printer, and adhesive spray.

I guess Greybeard and myself suck, since we are the only two people that need a scrollsaw in order to do scrollsawing.

1)drill press
2)sander(have belt/disk and random orbital)
3)table saw
