    Newbie woodworking wannabee

    Hi ... Smiley123 here. I'm Canadian, from the greater Toronto area (henceforth to be known as the GTA). I'm a truck driver, ex-network specialist, ex-machinist apprentice, blah, blah, blah ...

    I'm into wood working, but cannot afford to buy the tools I need ... I am also looking into teaching myself the art of Lutherie, as I want to build custom accoustic and electric guitars, as I approach retirement ...

    Any advise as to websites I can find free woodworking machine plans, such as panel tablesaws, routers, hand planes, drill pressues and jigs to use on them would be greatly appreciated !

    Anyway, I look forward to meeting you all over some interesting conversation threads ...

    All the best !

    Hi Smiley123,

    Welcome!

    You might enjoy perusing our Luthiery category - lots of good ideas to be found there…

    Which woodworking machine would you like to build first?
