Just about every day we get at least one call from a reader who wants assistance with selecting a tool or machine. And I’m always amazed by both how much research they’ve done and how misguided it usually is.
Part of the problem is that these readers are usually new to woodworking, so they’re not sure which features are important and which aren’t.
