Starting a home-based woodworking business will require a plan. This plan should show you how to get through the initial start-up in a cost-effective and timely manner. Part of this plan should also include a list of tools you’ll need to help make your home-based business profitable as soon as possible.

Some of these tools may be cordless or corded. The cordless type will be portable as it can be used anywhere. Cordless tools will not require an electrical outlet except when the batteries need to be recharged. It should be noted that operating cordless tools in a cold environment will mean that the batteries will need to be recharged more frequently. You should recharge the batteries in a warm environment to speed up the charging process. Using corded tools will be less expensive to purchase and will work in colder environments more efficiently.

Some tools that you should consider buying during the start-up of your woodworking business are many. They can be wireless or wired. Many will require no energy, just your muscle strength. Here are a few to consider.

1. Manual circular saw and chop saw.

This is a hand tool that can be used to cut wood and is highly portable in both cordless and corded versions. Circular saws are also used to cut masonry and metal. These types of saws are often called shop saws and use special circular blades that cut through these materials. When using a chop saw, get proper training in doing so and wear proper personal protective equipment, such as protective eyewear and gloves. Improper use of such a tool can cause serious personal injury.

You will probably never need a chop saw in your woodworking business. However, a handheld circular saw will come in handy and is very safe to operate.

2. Impact driver

These are high torque tools that can often do the common job more effectively in terms of speed of doing the job. These are very popular tools used in the construction industry. Carpenters, plumbers, and electricians prefer the impact driver to the drill. However, there will be a number of applications where the drill will be more useful, especially if it is necessary to use the hammer drill configuration of the drill.

3. Reciprocating saw

This tool is another portable tool that can be used to cut through wood or metal with the proper blade. The cutting action is accomplished by a push-pull or reciprocating action of the blade. Proper use of this tool is required as serious personal injury may result. Always remove the battery when changing the blade in such a device. If the tool is corded, always unplug the device when changing the blade or making any other changes to the devices. Before handing your device over to someone else, use its lock feature.

Starting a woodworking business will require the purchase of a number of tools. Choosing a proven woodworking plan should contain a list of the necessary tools to help you start making a profit with little hassle and in a timely manner.
