Hi everyone,
At present i'm turning my garage into a workshop (for a hobby, not a career, yet).
So far i've built myself a workbench (just still waiting for the benchtop materials).
Most of my tools are pretty cheapo stuff, and what i want to know is what types of things should i be looking to get first to help me along the way. I'd like to be able to build as much as possible in the way of benches and stands. So far i have a pillar drill (from a post here) and i plan to buy a lathe for my intrest in woodturning.
My first thing i am considering buying is a decent saw and mitre block, is this a good place to start.
Any advice is most gratefully received,
Sean
Oh and can anyone recommend any good magazines (i think i have a copy of "good woodworking" and loads of back issues of a US magazine called "shopnotes")
