Hey Matthias,

Recently got a new tabletop saw. What are the essentials jigs I should build first?



Put another way:

Hey <programmer>, I just bought a new laptop. Which IDE should I install on it first?


I don't think this is a correct analogy, as I like wood working and program for a living.

I would say it would be more of "what types of extensions or addons should I use", which in itself, is less than cut and dry, since a lot depends on what you want to build.

However for table saws, you'll want a sled and zero clearance plates (for different blades and angles) for sure. Should you make a tenon jig, among other things, will depend on what you hope to build.
