Basic Tools Necessary For Woodshop Projects

By Kerri Stout


There are many tasks that are given to children these days while they are in school. Out of the many homework they have to complete especially during summer break, one of them is woodwork. They will be tasked to show off their skills with their own woodshop projects. To make the said project, they have to get the following tools for themselves.

Circular saw. While some people think of this as more of a carpentry tool than a woodworking tool, that is truly not the case. Even in this kind of project, you can still make use of the circular saw to produce the kind of woodwork that you are aiming for. This handheld power tool is very versatile so it should be easy for you to use it.

The power drill is also an important one to have in your arsenal. When choosing what type of power drill you will have to purchase, you can pick between the corded drill or the cordless drill. While the cordless drill might be appealing for you, yo should consider having the corded drill because of its versatility and power.

Jigsaw. Of course, this does not mean the jigsaw puzzle. Rather, it refers to a power tool you must purchase for your woodwork. This is a beginner's alternative to the more advanced power tool that is the band saw. If you have jigsaw, then you can cut out any curved or circular pattern for your pieces of stock easily.

Table saw. You can say that the table saw is one of the major woodworking tool purchase that you have to brace yourself for. The other tools are easy and affordable to purchase but this one is a different matter. You should only take the purchase of this power tool into account when you are already used to woodworking.

Random orbital sanders are getting more and more popular these days too. You should remember to add this to your arsenal, especially when you plan to make a good job at sanding the wood you have used in your wood work. Do not just rely on the palm sanders. It does not promote a random sanding motion as random orbital sanders do.

Compound miter saw. It is recommended for a beginner to only purchase a compound miter saw after the purchase of the table saw. The compound miter saw is not expensive so you should be able to purchase it easily. However, it is as important as the table saw. You may cut compound angles in your pieces of stock if you have this.

Router. There are two types of bases for the routers, the stationary one and the plunger one. For beginners, it is highly recommended to make use of the stationary base. This allows you to do a good job with the woodwork.

These power tools are very powerful, just as their name suggests. But they can be dangerous as well. Thus, it is recommended that people use these power tools with care. Whether one is an amateur or an experienced worker, use the power tools with care. Otherwise, you will get injured.
