What do you recommend for a dust/weather proof cover? I need both for a 10″ drill press and a 10″ table saw.
Welcome to the forum.
My expectation is that those tools, stored outdoors, covered with a tarp will rust and degrade. It sounds like other options don’t exist, so make the best of the situation.
Given that the majority of our population lives in a disposable society, then this deterioration w/ eventual replacement is acceptable.
My motto has been “take care of your tools and they will take care of you”. The 40+ year old tools I purchased new are going strong, as are those I inherited from my parents and grandparents.
An enclosure, such as a shed, will be better than a tarp.
