Eric - TIA Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Welcome to the forum and that's great your getting into woodworking. There are so many tools for woodworking. Really depends what you will be making. Some of the basic tools are a nice set of chisels along with a sharpener. I would also look at some jigs. Jigs are ge especially for a new person as they save alot of time. You will also need some sandpaper. Clamps are amust. Again the list goes on. Tools are expensive so iwould look at your first project and get the tools for that project. You will see over time your inventory will grow.

wayneburgess Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Hi folks, Just a heads up about Stanley who have brought ot 2 light weight framing hammers that drive nails like a 28 ounce hammer yet way 15 ounces.Sounds like a joke but folks are raving about them over here in the U.K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayneburgess Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 LOL Not all the Time Eric, Sometimes I feel like getting on a plane to the U.S just to come look at all the cool stuff you guys have over there. But I think I would get carried away and dive in on a building site and never come home LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
