I am very new to this site and woodworking in general. I find it quite relaxing hang out in the garage and toil, however I have literally no clue what I'm doing.
I've been buying tools over the last few months (Table saw, compound mitre saw, biscuit jointer etc). I've been buying mostly ryobi at home depot due to the cost. I recently made a trips to Harbor Frieght, Woodcraft and Northern Tool. All of which have wildly varying prices.
Are some of these discounters such as HF worth it?
How do I determine what the right tools are to purchase and when?
Anyone know of some good general woodworking courses available in the Triangle?
Anyways, sorry for the vague questions, but just hoping to start a dialogue.
Best,
Nate
BTW, are some of these icons for real?!?!?!:saw::BangHead::help::kamahlitu
