Me ( 13 years old ) running my first brand new saw

[user 188535]

I was originally going to go for the 170. But I settled on this instead. I thought I was going to wait until my birthday to buy it, but then I realized how much money I was making with my businesses. I'm hoping to have a full carving setup before the end of summer. I also attached a video.

Congratulations! What carving do you do?

The only stuff that I do is the occasional carving with the dremel. Any advice from what tools I should get next would be great be great. I know that I want to get a couple more saws and a speed sander

Congratulations Young Man! As the talent pool gets shallower, as young guys lose out on the art of the wrench, you have goals, and require tools. However, you have the #1 choice to start with. Use that saw until you understand it......

Practice your craft, before bloating your work bench. Good Luck.

I have a local guy that carves big logs. He prefers an electric saw. Instant start, quieter, gobs of power, etc.

I'd do as C.Bruce says. Just work that saw. Lots to learn, so no sense in overloading yourself with tools you don't really need, or at least at this point.

And remember to post pictures of your carvings.

GET YOUR safety gear and training, use it religiously. Injured, maimed, or killed is NOT the GOAL. Good luck, stay safe.
