  10. I’m about to start my first build. The last few month I have been working on making sure I have all the tools that I will need. I’m lucky I already have a few that I think will help will this project. I have bought some too. Over the years I have done a lot of veneer work and re-manufacture of small parts (rebuilding furniture) and one of my tools that I find useful is a router. I think with a good table and a few jigs you could make (square) holes , taper anything ( e.g.: masks, planks, ) corners, shapes of any kind, just to name a few. I’m I wrong that a router is too much for this? I find that the model tool sellers do not sell any why?
