New builder hints thread

Hi,
Have a look at this thread on here for tips;

Check out the advertiser's websites on the sides of this website for tool packages. Also check the calssifieds here for things you'll need.

You've come to the right place!

First off, nice to meet you. You will find a wealth of information on this site.

There are many great tool suppliers out there.
I went with Avery and was happy with the selection.
My advice, get the tool kit. Delete the C-Frame dimpler and add the DRDT-2 dimpler. that will get you started good.

Tom, welcome aboard VAF

There is a search function that you will find to be useful, much of what you are asking has been asked in the past.

I agree about getting the DRDT-2 instead of the "C" frame.

Also, there is a sub forum all about builders tips that may assist you.

Enjoy, and again, welcome!!!!

Shop Setup

Set your shop with:

- lots of storage
- lots of light
- plenty of electrical outlets
- a good air compressor
- include the ability to rearrange your shop if you can (I'm on version 3.2)
