I work solo, so I only have myself to blame when something gets screwed up. I spent a few years working in a machine shop so I know that often setup error is confused for a tool malfunction.

I would like to weigh in with the fact that good tools to help to reduce some of the dangers of woodworking (not eliminate!) and anything that makes a project run smoother makes and makes a shop more efficient also offers the opportunity for the project to be more profitable.
