The space owns a variety of handheld woodworking machines. Since they tend to wear out and be replaced more often than many of their larger bench tool cousins we do not list them all separately on the wiki. Most are free of any training requirement and are kept on shelves around the woodshop, but some more delicate or expensive items are stored in the wood tools cupboard and should only be used by those who have been approved to use these tools.

A quick survey of the woodshop in Jan 2022 found that at least one of all the following tools were available:

  • Milwaukee cordless drill
  • Milwaukee impact driver
  • Various Hitachi and Ryobi drills and drivers (quite worn out compared to the Milwaukee, mostly used as spares and when the others are in use)
  • Random orbit sander
  • Belt sander
  • 1/4 sheet orbital sander
  • 1/2 sheet orbital sander
  • Mini belt sander/ power file
  • Jigsaw
  • Circular saw
  • Power planer
  • Palm router
  • 1/4" plunge router
