there are some good videos out there by good i mean that the presenters know what they are doing and are straight forward i find the videos useful but sometimes it is more enjoyable to learn by doing and making mistakes have picked up useful tips here and there from videos but nothing beats just making things and learning as you go which do you prefer or do you mix it up |

The local Woodcraft offered a course for beginners over a few days. It was a great confidence builder as we made a simple CD rack that was designed to incorporate re-sawing, jointing, thickness planing, dado, rabbets, curves, hand planing. It was a couple of days invested, but knowledge that lasts forever and I'm not afraid to tackle anything. An alternative is to move next door to a very experienced woodworker. |
