Good question. I can provide info about equipment that I am firmly visually aware of as available: 10" Delta table saw, Delta 12" portable planar, Belt/disk sander, bench grinder, Sears 30 gal air compressor (150 psi max), Grizzly G8693 mini shaper for bead/cove, and various attachments for previous listed equipment. I'm not sure if the rollers on the roller stands roll anymore. Specific boat hand tools that I remember: chisels, spokeshave (?s), pull saw (?s), small block plane, Kevlar cutting scissors, sanders. Most small stuff is stored in boxes/containers. A major problem with equipment accounting is I moved from a 28 bag house with 2.5 car garage to a 9 bag house with no garage, a lot of stuff is stored vertically to the ceiling in the horizontal space available.
I have at least 4 dark brown, 3/4"w x 1/4"t ~20' cedar strips that I made years ago from a 8' 2x4, carefully end matching the grain, hanging from the ceiling,along with other ~16' strips. I can dimly recollect making them. Somewhere I still have the wood tooling used to help make the scarf joints and bond sections together. Several 8' 2x4 were sliced into 1/4" x1.5" strips. Still have 60' of 2x4 and 8' of 2x6, mostly dark cedar which never made it to the saw. Boards are almost completely clear.
In my previous endeaver, I got as far as installing station, bow and stern forms on a 14' 2x4 t-shaped strongback. I was just starting on the strips when I was overwhelmed by other events. The 2x4 strongback is sitting outside out of the rain on some brick. I never did make the final decision on whether to use bead/cove or not. I had wanted to try to fit a few pieces without first.
