Misc
- Manual Miter Saw
- Wire Bender
- Woodpecker Precision Tools, would be nice to get one of the 450mm units but they are only rarely made.
- PlyPrep Router Bit for edge banding.
Router Table
- Jessem Looks solid and comes recommended over the Festool unit in this LumberJocks Review of the Festool unit
- The Festool router table sounds pretty nice but also has some semi-mixed reviews, especially considering the price. Need to do a bit more research.
- BenchDog Router Table also sounds like a solid option. BenchDog ProMax-RT cast iron top, available as top only, could build own base or even use saw horses or something. Could be more versatile and storable... hrmmm.
