Just a quick and minor update
First of all, the book I mentioned earlier is definitely a winner. I’m taking it slow and enjoying it a lot. It’s full of really interesting and good information.
In other news, Craigslist came through for me. I got a really nice heavy duty table saw for a good price, and now all I need tools-wise are a router with table and a decent jigsaw. My wife is pretty understanding about what I did with my money so I should be able to proceed once I get my cast off. Hopefully that will happen in the next week or so.
