Tool Selection, The Ultimate Small Shop Guide

 

Tool Selection

By far the biggest way woodworkers lose money and get discouraged is tool selection. In this module, I’ll show you:

How to determine exactly which tools you need for your woodworking hobby BEFORE you start buying… so you’ll never blow your hard-earned cash on a tool that just ends up sitting in a box unused.

My hand-tool only shopping list if your budget is under $500 (or if you just want to use hand-tools only)…  and direct links to buy them for the best price. (pg 41)

My power tool and hand-tool shopping list if your budget is under $1,000…  and direct links to buy them for the best price. (pg 42)

The 5-second trick that keeps your tools and machines in top working condition. The manufacturers won’t tell you this for a reason! (Do this before and after you start working and you can postpone buying replacement parts for YEARS.)

My secret source for buying tools at HUGE discounts. I once found a Dewalt DW734 12 ½ inch planer for $170 on this site… when Amazon sold it for $399. And NO ONE talks about this place.

You’ll get my “short-list” of stationary, portable, and pneumatic tools for your new workshop… and I’ll show you where to buy them at 40-60% off what you’d pay at Home Depot, Wal-Mart, Amazon, or even Harbor Freight!(Go to Page 89 for this eye-opening intel!)

The best (and really the ONLY) items I would recommend buying at big box stores like Home Depot and Walmart.

The difference between wood-working with hand-tools vs power-tools. And how to know if a project is better suited for power tools or if hand-tools are the way to go for better precision and control.

Why shopping for tools through most online and big-box retailers is almost always a waste of money. (There’s a BIG difference between promising low prices… and actually delivering on that promise!)

My personal "rolodex" of suppliers that offer heavily discounted tools.  These suppliers have everything you need - from hand tools, to power equipment, to portable tools and even replacement parts – at the lowest prices I’ve ever seen! (I don’t let many people see this “hush-hush” list.)

​The tools I recommend have been used by either myself or someone I personally know. Their durability and performance is top notch and I can vouch for them.
