we need to know exactlywhat you plan to do in your workshop!!!

if its woodwork 2000w would be the absolute minimum to power table saws routers

best way to have a gen is in a insulated box around 3 times the size off the genny with lots off ventilation wia baffles to kill the sound and exhaust channeld out side
