Maybe for you, my school considering how much you have to pay to go there (7000$ AUS, for Day boys and 17000 for boarders) is like the worst school out for woodworking tools and ****.. i mean some of the state schools here in aus have better facilities and you dont pay to go to a state school.
the only things that they have that are good is a decent range of 2 year old makita tools. everything else is caveman style, i mean they have a radial arm saw that NEVER cuts straight, a bandsaw with a huge dent in the blade that they will not replace, sanders with paper on it that has seen the 80's and a teacher that wont let me do **** unless i come in after school, luckily i live at school lol so thats no problem.
ahh Shut up me..... lol....
Zendrix, nice bass so far i really like the look you got going here, what plans have you got for it?
Spokeshave, no way man i think there deadly lol, get a rasp man they are great for shaping then get some fine halfround files to smooth it out after the rasp then some sandpaper
What kinda router are you thinking of? make sure it has variable speed if you plan to use bits over 35mm diameter..
