Introduction

• Its exciting to start woodworking. Youve got a
  little space in the basement or the garage carved
  out, and after you buy some of the critical
  equipment that you need, youll be ready to build
  something beautiful. But starting can be a bit
  daunting, too.

Woodworking Machines

• Woodworking consists of processing pieces of wood
  so that they all have a straight edge, a flat
  face, a uniform thickness, width, and length.
  With some materials, like plywood, most of that
  work is already done for you.

4
Circular Saw

• If theres one power-activated saw belonging in
  every beginners box, its a circular saw. There
  are unlimited brands available, but they all have
  a common feature. Thats around or circular blade
  full of sharp teeth that split through the wood.
  All circular saws are electric, although they
  come in various power ratings. Most are corded
  tools running on the household course, but there
  have been great advances in cordless circular
  saws.

5
Jigsaw

• Every beginning woodworker should invest in a
  decent jigsaw. Theyre also called saber saws
  because of their reciprocating, saber-like blade.
  These electric power tools are designed to make
  intricate cuts that can be straight, curved, or
  serpentine. Think of the lines in a jigsaw
  puzzle, and youll know what a jigsaw is capable
  of.

Compound Miter Saw

• Compound miter saws are a step up from regular
  circular saws. They still take the same rip,
  crosscut, and combination blades as circular
  saws. However, theyre fixed in an arm or a track
  much like the radial arm saws theyve almost
  replaced. Common blade diameters are 10 and
  12-inch, but compound miter saws can be fitted
  with the smaller 7 ½ size. For a miter saw, one
  should always use a quality crosscut saw blade.

7
Table Saw

• Cabinet table saws are heavy and made to stay
  put. The name comes from their motors being
  enclosed in a lower cabinet with the blade driven
  by a belt and block system. Theyre wonderful for
  all-purpose work from lumber-ripping to
  panel-cutting.
• Benchtop platform saws are lighter-duty. Theyre
  made to be manageable, so theyre perfect for
  traveling between locations as well as
  conveniently storing during negative being used.
  Most benchtop table saws are direct drive. 

8
Bandsaw

• Theres annihilation like a bandsaw for ripping
  rough stock or making intricate curved cuts.
  These power tools are a combination of circular
  and saber saws, where teeth are fixed on a
  continuously looped, flat steel band and revolve
  around upper and lower pulleys.
