Is there any books that I can purchase that would assist me to learn how to us the workcentre, cutting joints, mitres and all things I may learn to do with the workcentre.
I am tired of fast forwarding and rewinding the video any help would be appreciated

Hi Peter,
I've asked before but Triton seems to think that the videos far outweight any benefit from a book.
The 'picture is work a thousand words' comes to mind at the moment.
The vidoes are like having a demonstrator on hand 24 hours a day.
The users guide you get with each Triton product I found to be invaluable before buying the videos.
I was shocked when I purchased the Bosche 1300 ACE and it DID NOT come with a users guide.
Its been a fantasy of mine for the last few months to findsome one who is willing to spend some time with me to put together a Trition Handbook. No takers so far.
And each time I want to start a project I run for the video and fast forward to the appropriate demonstration.
And often stumble over a segent I should have used on the last project.
Welcome and all the best,

Hi Peter,
Like you, I am a beginner at all this. I haven't seen the videos yet (apart from the one that comes with the workcentre and watching the continuous video in my local Bunnings store).
But I found the setup manual with each of the products to be invaluable. In addition to their ease of use, I found things like test cuts, tips & techniques, hints etc. were enough to get me going and to wet my appetite for more.
What I will be looking for soon is more a woodworking course of some sort. If they use Triton equipment that would be a bonus.
Good Luck http://ubb.ubeaut.com.au/ubb/smile.gif

Hello Peter,
I am not sure of your location though the Triton Club in Canberra will be covering jointmaking at our next meeting in March.
