Slightly off-topic: Learning carpentry and basic wood-work ...

wrote: Folks, Happy Holidays! I am interested in getting started with basic wood-work -- carpentry as a hobby. Maybe I'll start with children's toys. I'd like to get an overview of tools, work-place setup etc. Any quick crash-courses out there? Any pointers will be appreciated. Best Regards, Kedar Mhaswade. There are all kinds of woodworking skills. You might consider a bandsaw as a first tool--not too much space, lots of versatility, reasonable in price, plus it will always be useful as your skills improve. Perhaps the first project to build would be a sturdy workbench--you will gain skills and have a very useful shop "tool" when complete. Visit your local library for books. |
