Hi DIY Gurus,

I would like to know what affordable tools are necessary to have when planning to build a simple "butt joint" cabinet ala ADA style?

Here's my issue. Where I live, Retail Hardware's do not provide "table saw" cutting services. Therefore, it is hard(almost impossible) to have a perpendicular 90 degrees cut piece of 1"x3" hardwood to make a proper "butt join" using wood glue and screws(drilled).

Please try not suggest a table saw as I would need a routing table of sorts and that would be costly.

Thanks in advance for your time and feedback!
