absolute beginner

hi All
I inherited a woodshop when my uncle decided he no longer wanted to do wood.
I have the following items in the shop. Table saw, jig saw, router 1.25hp, I
added a router table, 3 sanders. I am very intrigued by the router but have
no clue on how start with it. I have made a few cuts with it and am a bit
lost, any book or website recommendaions?
thanks
Sandie

Aside from reading some books and magazines, consider taking a basic
woodworking course and get some safety tips also. Tablesaws look so easy to
use, but they can eat body parts if you don't know what you are doing.

too.

When you realize how great a tool they are you'll start buying bits by
the dozens, BTDT. Plan EARLY on a means of storge and identification.
Great tools!
