Happy Birthday! It certainly depends on what you have and what you plan on making. You might want to consider a really good set of chisels or something. Maybe a jig to make fine jointery… something that you would find rewarding that will last… so in 30-40 years you can say, “I’ve had these since my 15th birthday and I just can’t wear them out.” Buy a nice quality tool now, and when you get older you will really cherish it. -- As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. (Proverbs 27:17) |

Well, you haven’t posted shop pix yet, so I don’t know what you need, but if you do not have one, a Japanese pull saw (dozuki) is a great tool – you can practice dovetails, etc… -- John |

Happy Birthday! Not knowing how much money you got, makes it hard to say…. We don’t know what you already have… Sometimes, you can get some good deals from Amazon, free shipping, etc. I’ve heard good things about the Rigid thickness planer at HD… If you’re going to be into doing hand-cut dovetails, a Nielsen DT Saw would be good… Can you tell us more of what you have, want to do, etc.? -- Have Fun!
