Does anyone know of a site or business that provides videos (CD's) on how to use power tools like RAS, BS, TS, etc. Other that manufacturer which I have found is very limited. I personally would like to learn more about how to properly use my equipment and make the most of each tool.

You might search Taunton Press's products. I'll bet they have some videos.

Hendrik Varju has some good dvd's. I purchased both the table saw and jointer/planer video's before I started using the equipment for the first time and can highly recommend them. You will probably end up figuring out your own best way of working after a while, but if just starting out, I highly recommend them:

They have a bunch and they are all good for what they are, I suggest getting the video for each tool not the survey video as it is not very in depth.

Check your library. Where I used to live they had lots of woodworking videos, including tool specific 'how to' topics.

There's a lot of great stuff on youtube but there's also a lot of crap, use common sense.

Marc Adams has a video series that seems pretty good. The pace is reasonable and it doesn't make too many assumptions. Safety is a primary consideration but not so much that productivity seems impossible. Marc's SOP's seems sound and effective. It is too bad that he doesn't sell the safety video individually as it lays a good groundwork.

What I've seen of the "The Wood Whisperer" is pretty good too and the price is right.
