First a quality drill. I personally use all dewalt stuff but its personal preference. There are other quality lines out there.

I've been doing this for a while and still don't have a table saw because I don't want to go on the cheap on that. You can make rips with a circular saw and a guide.

Get a good miter. You can probably do 90% of what you will want to do with a 12" miter saw, but if you have the funds make it a 12" sliding.

Clamps - as someone else said harbor freight will save you some money. Other stores want $$$ for clamps.

A good orbital sander. I use bosch, but again any of the brands dewalt, bosch, ryobi, porter cable to name a few will serve you just fine.

Resources: I'm good based on existing plans. Designing your own is a little more tough. I like to use Ana White, DIY Pete, Rogue Engineer for a lot of good ideas. Good luck!

Agree. Don't get the 10". Made this mistake and had to get a 12" after I got tired of dealing with it.
