For a comprehensive list of all my tools - https://www.start-making.com/tools

In this video I cover the worst 5 tools that I bought early on in my journey.

I wasted my hard earned money and hope that I can stop people from doing the same.

This hobby/career is expensive enough without substandard tools not only costing you but ruining your work.

These are primarily Beginner Woodworking tools to avoid but more experienced makers could also fall into the trap.

Please watch this video before you buy.

Here is the next video in the series outlining the replacements and fixes that were suggested to combat these poor tools.
