Stop the two bit detective work. I never claimed to be a long time Usenet
poster. That does not put a dent in my woodworking experience. Like I said,
the specific tools that I endorsed are fine for a beginner.

Certainly! Back to the original questions, and onward with helping
newbies. G I'm seeking clarifications to the following expert
recommendations, as maybe _I_ can learn something.

So, Gary,

Why would you recommend a 1/4 sheet sander over a random orbit sander,
when both can be had for about the same price?

Why would a newbie need _any_ pneumatic tool without a compressor?

Why would a newbie need a pneumatic screwdriver, when a VSR drill is
also on the list?

Why a glue gun? What's your recommendation for glue for this gun?

What advantage does a poor table saw _and_ a cheap circular saw have
over a high quality circular saw and edge guide?

Wouldn't a woodworker need some sort of measuring device and angle
layout tools? What would you recommend?

Thanks in advance,
Barry
