Excellent advice as always. My first major tool was a miter saw that I still use. Unfortunately it does not slide. Second major tool was a bandsaw that was gifted to me. Highly recommend getting one of those ASAP! I use that thing all the time.

Hey Mr. 731! Thanks for the video! My two cents worth for everyone: Dust collection is a must for the tablesaw, jointer, and planer. Love your shirt! Take care, brother!

Trying to start getting into woodworking....watching your videos along with several other content creators is making the process a lot less intimidating. Thanks and keep up the good work!

When you said “ if it ain’t square you wasted your money”, I hit the sub button!

Thanks ! Good video for those who seriously wanted to set up a woodworking workshop!

Thanks for the tips. I have that same dewalt saw and it cuts great. I have an old porter skill saw that i have used instead of a table saw for two reasons. First i don’t have a shop so i can’t set up the table the way it needs to be set. Second i trust my self to make those straight cuts. Learning how to do project with basic tools builds a foundation for a master craftsman.

My Delta 36-425 table top warpped also. Good they had 5 years warranty. Got a new replacement at Lowes and sold it and then went for a Sawstop upgrade

[mr.b.w.]

Agree with you on the drill press. bought one off a work mate, very handy tools.

Great info and love your 'Chosen' shirt!

I have the Delta Cruzer and it is a great saw. It is heavy if you are taking it to a jobsite, but I would imaging that if you are going for a saw with zero clearance behind the saw you are using it as a stationary unit in a shop. It also has the lights that cast a shadow line rather than the laser, which is very nice as well. It was a big upgrade from the Chicago Electric.

My table saw came with a CMT blade on it and I love it, been a great blade for me the entire time.

Hey! Rocking The Chosen Shirt! I love it! Thanks for this video, I'm not quite ready to buy a big machine but this video was recommended and I thought I'd give it a watch. I have subscribed and will continue to follow your videos so I can grow as a carpenter.

P.S. I love your editing man, the time travel transition was awesome! I used to do that on older videos I use to edit for a dentist. You have inspired me to get creative with transitions again. Love, Peace and Taco Grease!

[pskemster]

Great video! Great tips. Thanks for the intel!

[jcv]

I always learn from you! I'm a basic wood worker right now. But, we an eye on the future to expand my tools and skil.

I’ve really enjoyed watching you grow as a content creator, Your videos are really looking great, excellent work, thanks for the tips and info!

[ronswoodshack]

Another awesome video!!! Thank you for the content

I have seen you on YouTube & watched a couple videos here & there.. but now that I’ve read into woodworking the past year & finally began to understand things like (what drill bits pair with what size screws/bolts, why & how to find the studs in the wall & why it’s important, how to USE my drill, why CLAMPS rule, why MDF for the most part SUCKS, & so much more..) Well now I’m finding…. that YOU HAVE A LOT OF REALLY GOOD INFORMATION & EXCELLENT / RELEVANT INSIGHT to give. You know your stuff & you’re really on point with exactly what someone who’s really seriously trying to be most effective in woodworking is going to be concerned with. Like I said at first I just sort of passed you up. But now I see that you’re just for the slightly more serious in-it-to-win-it woodworkers that aren’t playing around.
I’ll definitely be tuning in to you more often. Thanks for existing. - Erin K

my first major tool was definately the table saw. It being the most versatile. Then it was the jointer. i still dont have a planer, or a miter saw but am planning on getting a planer soon.

[trep]

I had a Rigid job site table but I returned it and bought the Delta 36-725 and I’m very happy with the Delta. If you need portability get a job site saw otherwise the 36-725 or newer version is a superior saw. I also didn’t like the direct drive system on job site saws.

You mentioned WEN products, I have a WEN band saw, belt/disc sander and oscillating spindle sander and I think they are very good tools. WEN tools are underrated imho.

I use hand planes which I have a lot of experience with and I’m able to get the results needed to square hardwood or softwood for my projects. I buy from a locale lumber yard and some local harvested kiln dried 4 quarter and larger but power planes or jointers aren’t on my list. They can make short work of cleaning up a board but the noise, wood chips & dust is a big factor in not having them.
