Hello!
I'm Justin and live in South Jersey. I've been dabbling in and out of the hobby for awhile, but have never had the room to use actual power tools. Finally, after moving into a single-family house (from a condo), I have room and dived in head-first. Unfortunately, it's only half of a two car garage. Wife wants the other half for her car (gasp). So, everything I've been making/using needs to be as portable as possible. I've somehow managed to build a mitre saw station, workbench, and rolling tool cabinet. I think all are slightly out of square, but I'll blame it on the garage floor and not my abilities. I have most of the essential tools except for a band saw & drill press. Not sure if I want to invest in those just yet. My biggest decision right now is an upgrade to my current Kobalt table saw. It's okay for what it does, but it's becoming annoying. Cuts aren't square no matter how much adjusting I do.
Looking back, I really wish I had paid attention to the TV when my step-dad was watching all those woodworking shows. Oh, well. Anyway, I'm looking forward to sharing ideas with everyone and asking a TON of questions while I continue this incredible hobby.
Talk with ya'll soon!
