Well done, Loring. There's a certain comfort in having ample energy for all your shop tools.
I remember my last garage shop, it also had a subpanel but with only two 20A breakers, and I was kicking breakers constantly, especially if I had a couple things on and started up my 12" HF disk sander running. I moved before I had a chance to upgrade.
My latest place was previously owned by a carpenter, who wired the shop with 5 circuits, four at 110v (all my tools are 110v) and one at 220v. (Also has a specially ventilated paint/thinner cabinet built in.)
Now if I could only figure out what to do with that 220v...
