I will pretend I know what you are talking about and watch some youtube videos about it

Anyone?

Hi everyone, I embarked on the woodworking journey a while back with your help. I have mainly been building plywood cabinets and so far my track saw and router have been more than enough for the stuff I was building. However, I am now upgrading for simple plywood boxes to building frames and...

That is indeed probably as close to perfection as I can find out of the shelve. Thank you for pointing it out to me

My "workshop" if you want to call it that is a small garage where I lay a 1" plywood board on top of two saw horses. I mainly build cabinets for the house but I am now trying to build a desk and planning to build the frame using hardwood rather than ply. This is one of the reasons for the router...

Hi guys, I have started wood working with your help for almost a year now and I am now at the point where I want to step out of the basic joints and would really appreciate having a router table. Question is which one? My router is a Triton MOF001 which as I understand should be no problem to...

Now you got me confused does that mean a track saw won't be able to cross cut sheets?

No I know the difference it is just that with cabinet I will use it mainly for breaking mdf/plywood into rectangles/squares so the only time I need to cross cut is to make the feet and so on for the cabinets. I still think that I need a mitre saw if I want to use wood rather than sheets but for...

That is a very tempting price that's for sure and one I wasn't considering since I don't know the brand so thank you very much for the heads up. The extra depth of cut is definitely very tempting. Does the blade that comes with it good enough for plywood or should I purchase a different TCT...

Ok I think you guys got me convinced and I will 'plunge' fora track saw. I know the festool seems to be the favourite but it really is outside my budget although I can stretch to the makita SP6000J1 which is available at axminster with 2 guides and storage box for £330 which is just slight above...

Just to make sure we are on the same by a track saw you mean a plunge saw? Don't these tools have completely different purposes though? As far as I understand the track saw is only useful to cut on the track so I can only use to cut sheets of material. So what do you use to cut small bits of...

Also there seems to be a ridgeons near my house is this any better for wood than B&Q/Wickes?

It is a small cube of 30x30x35cm so just 1ft long so it seems it won't bit a problem at all and I am just overthinking this. The cabinet does need to be about 3ft in total but I want to divide in half so don't think it will a problem. I understand what you say about equipment but to be honest I...

I also have a Juwel one which in on the same material but they do have a lot of vertical supports and they are veneered so water slippages don't cause them to expand. Not sure how it would react if this isn't the case, but I am guessing it can probably be treated to cope better with water...

I feel humbled by the sheer number of replies I got. Thank you for all the tips. I have placed an order for the furniture book recommended above which should be delivered by the end of the end and should give some ideas to get the brain going. Pockets walls do seem extremely easy to do by...

Don't need to go the power tools route to be honest it is just that most of the videos I see on furniture use them. And this is quite a longer list that what I expected to get me started so budget wise is also not ideal. But to be completely honest I am open to suggestions as my main problem has...

Hello everyone, I have always being interested in woodworking but due to being constantly relocating I never had the opportunity to dedicate much time to it. I have built some wood shelf in the past but they were definitely not on the good looking side, just some painted mdf board hold together...
