Power Tools Q&A

Russ asked:

I’m just getting into woodworking and building my shop, and i’m looking to get as many bar type clamps as possible for as little as possible.
I was very close to picking up a set of wratcheting quick release clamps from a guy on craigslist, but someone else beat me to it.
I don’t want to wait for another used sale to come along again, so what are your suggertions for new clamps?

I’m building a page for my website and was wanting to get some of your
suggestions.

1. What is a good cabinet design software program for a small to
medium sized (home) woodshop?

Are there any other woodworking software programs you would personally
suggest?

Thank you for your input.

ANGEL ICE asked:

i have a power tool it has a 230v 3 pin standard plug at the end of it. would it be safe to take the plug off and exchange it for a bayonet 110v plug and use it with a transformer.
will it effect the tools operation in any way, if not will it use less power to function=cheaper?.

Allice asked:

I am thinking about taking up a new hobby. I enjoy creating things (especially useful things for the home,) and have more skill fallowing procedures than having to create without using guidelines or tools. I was wondering if anyone had any hobby suggestions. I have been seriously considering sewing and woodworking, and would like anyone’s opinion on the two hobbies, their costs, how easy it is to learn, how useful the hobbies is, how easy it is to find instruction in the hobby, and any other details you think useful.
Thank you very, very much for your time and help.
