Hi All,
I am new to the forum and new to woodworking. I want to get into woodworking as a hobby (if i was any good i think i'd love to do it as my profession but it's early days ).
I have read on various web sites a beginners list of power tools but what i really want to know is what are the best brands of power tools for a beginner/hobbiest like myself?
I have 3 samll children so i don't have a lot of spare money or time which is why i probably wouldn't want to spend more than £50 per power tool? Could anyone offer advice on brands or where i could pick up second hand tools (other than ebay)?
I already have a cordless and corded drill so i gues i would be looking at;
- circular saw
- jigsaw
- orbital or belt sander
- compound mitre saw
- router
Please also advise me on the order of importance.
Thanks alot
Mark
