I've got some money coming from overtime at work and I'm planning to buy some wood, the principal idea is to do some furniture making. Craftsman / Shaker stuff. SWMBO wants cherry, so some of the wood will be cherry, I have access to all of the heavier milling gear, planers, jointers dedicated RAS / Chop-saw. Away from my little shop, and plan on doing most of the rough work ahead of time. My question is how much of the total budget should go into sheed goods ply, mdf etc. several of the projects that I have in mind would go better with templates, jigs and fixtures to aid in fabrication and assembly.
