(Cross cut, rip, dado, bevel etc.) But, I guess it really depends on the type of wood work you want to do. Are you making an addition to the house or a rocking chair?

I had to spend some time thinking about it. Finally concluded a table saw or band saw was almost useless without joinery tools. I voted hand tools. Great poll!!
