As a beginner, you can only buy some shop machines at once. Therefore, you can start small and gradually build your woodworking machine collection as needed. You can begin with the essential devices, such as a table saw and a Planer/Jointer, and then add more as you go along. Alternatively, you can look for used engines or consider borrowing from a friend or a local maker space to save money initially. Remember, it's all about being resourceful and maximizing what you have.
