hi All I inherited a woodshop when my uncle decided he no longer wanted to do wood. I have the following items in the shop. Table saw, jig saw, router 1.25hp, I added a router table, 3 sanders. I am very intrigued by the router but have no clue on how start with it. I have made a few cuts with it and am a bit lost, any book or website recommendaions? thanks Sandie

is a good place to look. His books are excellent too.

Aside from reading some books and magazines, consider taking a basic woodworking course and get some safety tips also. Tablesaws look so easy to use, but they can eat body parts if you don't know what you are doing. Ed
