[QUOTE="I Like Waffle, post: 6354973, member: 600248"] Most of the time you wont need a table saw exactly, you can make your own with some scrap wood/metal. The basics i use is measuring tape circular saw jigsaw [I]safety goggles[/I] [I]dust mask[/I] 3ft clamps (harbor freight and biglots has them on teh cheap) a good drill drywall screws titebond 2 20lb weights Rasp (VERY important, as most likely all your cuts wont be dead on to the mm without a table saw, mine usually arent. Also makes it easy to round corners) Spray adhesive Staplegun Roller (for carpet) Im sure having a router would eliminate the need for half the tools i mentioned, but i dont have any experience with routers, dont mess with wood enough to need one yet, hope to get one soon though. Also something weird i found out on my first couple boxes, its very important when you clamp the wood to make sure both the adjustable end and the claw end of the clamp are parallel to each other, Its hard to notice but if you dont line the clamp up the right way it wont be square when it dries.
