Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

If you need a power tool to finish a project, buy a cheap one. If you find yourself using that tool a lot, upgrade to an expensive one.

Given the state of U.S. healthcare costs, a Saw Stop table pays for itself the first time you use it.

Same idea; If you're working on a project alone with power tools, always tell someone to check on you in 15 minutes.

I call the power tool one the Harbor Freight test. Buy the cheap version first, if you use it enough to break it then buy the quality one.
