Hi Guys,
Despite my optimistic planning, it's now been several years since I've had any space for a wood shop. BUT, after countless delays, we're now about 3 weeks from moving into our new home. (Which means it will be mostly done). The basement will have plenty of room for a shop, and I already have a 110V 1.75 SawStop in my current garage in a box, plus my little Dewalt Jointer and my band saw. I'm going to order an 8" Grizzly Jointer and a dust collector shortly after we move in.
My concern is that while I'm comfortable building benches and work areas, I'm not really confident I know how to set up the jointer and table saw well, or really even the dust collector. Is it sacrilege to hire someone to set up that stuff and teach me how to tune them?
