re: Prioritizing power tools for a home woodworking shop

obviously a table saw.

I used a plywood track guide with a circ saw for a long time and it did alright.


A thickness planer is something I didn't know how much I needed. Getting all your work down to the exact same thickness makes joining things up way more satisfying. Being able to run an old board through with old varish, ect on it and easily take it down to fresh wood is way better then sanding.
