think of something you need or want and build it. Look through project here as well. Recommendations for the next tool is going to be difficult because we all build different. My suggestion is start building stuff. As you find you want or need tools, buy or make them.

You will find a lot of use here find and restore older tools. That’s an option but not for everybody. I’d recommend starting with hand tools, but then, I didn’t.

Welcome to LJ’s. Have some fun.
