Well, I am sure you will cover routers thoroughly. I would add the use of
router tables, as they are pretty standard for doing 15 foot long dowels for
stringers. All the usual about saws, planers, sanders, etc. Don't drill
holes in yer fingers, keep cedar dust outta yer lungs (that's a biggie
around here), edge sanders can do a really quick manicure. Other factors:
nylon and hot knife burns, nylon fumes, and of course the infamous coatings.
Man, with all this going on, who'd wanna do this anyway?
