your going to deffinatly need bits

that is the way to go.... thats what i have and i love it.

for bits you will need:

flush mount bit

1/2" round over bit

and a spiral up cut bit with a circle jig like the jasper jig.

on table saws it depends how much you will be using it.

if you are going to be making an occasional box here and there then i would get the 150 to 250 ones at home depot or sears.

but if you are going to be making boxes every day then deffinately go big and spend 1000plus on a badd ass table saw and fence system like i did.

thanks for the reply!

do i need a router table and a jasper circle jig?

Yes on the jig, and not really on the table. I have a router and table that just sits 99% of the time. If fact I only use mine to make templates with

not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. :)

is there a particular size i should buy for those bits?

where is the cheapest place to buy these? or is there a set that will include all these?
