Thanks Charles and Gary! Recently began acquiring some better woodworking tools so I could raise the quality of work I do on my home and other projects. Butt-joints are going to be a thing of the past now!
Recently bought a benchtop bandsaw, and then I found a great deal on a Craftsman 12-amp router with plunge and fixed base. Still don't have a table saw, but I'll get by for now with my circular saw and guides. All of this is being done on a t-i-g-h-t budget, but sometimes that just makes it more fun.
Also recently discovered "The Router Workshop" so I've been binge watching it on Youtube. Bob and Rick really opened my eyes to the versatility of the router (thanks guys!).
Just ordered a set of Guide Bushings today, and once I get a chance, my first project will be an Oak-Park inspired router table!
Hey Art, spend a minute and put some info in your profile. IE.. what router do you use and perhaps the state you live in? Other members look at this to better answer your questions and steer you towards the best deals.
