Help me decide which directio i should spend my $500

[twisztdauthorit 10+ year member]

i have 500 bucks that i got from selling old equipment.

im planning on putting it towards a new car...

i just had a recent urge to get some nice tools. Sander/ Air compressor/ brad nailer/ nice table saw... I already have a few tools

I was wondering if i get this equipment if i can somehow use it to make back my $. I figure i can build more boxes and such but im not sure if people will come to me for that type of stuff. They probably rather go to bestbuy/ CC haha.

Im not sure when im supposed to get a car but those tools sound tempting.

Besides i can use the air compressor for my spud gun.

I dont want any highend tools, most would probably be from harbor freight as long as they dont look to cheap. I will take care of them but im known for getting woodglue all over everything...

So verdict is put $ towards a new car

Or

Invest in tools? and try to make back $

My skills are ok. Built 5 boxes so far and worked with fiberglass one time...

I would like to improve them and im sure with the right tools it would make it much easier to get straight cuts and nice edges etc...

I say put it towards new tools and get to building boxes and selling them to save for a car.

if your not certain how to spend your money, dont spend it.

keep it and when your certain what you want you will still have it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/graduate.gif.d982460be9f153bb54e5d4cb744f6ae8.gif

im holding on to it.. but i rather put it to use then sit there and do nothing.. tools are always nice to have.

Im looking for a compressor under $200

along with a table saw under $200

Hopefully i will have enough left over to get a; paint gun, sander, brad nailer.

But i already have:

-shitty table saw

-nice circ caw
