Hi everyone.
First time poster and new to woodworking.
My wife and I recently decided to build a house. Since making the decisions we've learned that we have to install our own yard fence and ultimately the cost to finish the basement was more than we were comfortable with. A friend suggested we finish the basement and build the fence ourselves and to make a long story short the entire thing has sent me down a path I never expected.
I love working with wood, and I'm going to turn it into a side hustle, which brings me to my question… Is a portable table saw or a track saw more appropriate for a begging woodworker who enjoys building furniture and cabinets?
I'm teaching myself different jointery techniques via YouTube and at present I am using Japanese pull saws to create basic joints. I am crious to learn about how I can use either of these saws to improve efficiency and quality of what I build.
Tools I've already purchased:
- drill press
- 12in compounding double bevel miter saw
- drill/driver set
- full set of imperial chisels
- 13in portable 2 speed plainer
- 2&1/4 HP plug router
- assorted japanese pull saws
Thanks in advance and please remember I don't pretend to know anything about the tools in question or the woodworking craft. I am very eager to learn and appeiciate any constructive ideas in addition to pros/cons of each tool.
