The Beginning Woodworker

This blog is to be an ongoing story about and for the beginning
woodworker.
It will begin at the basics, the whys, the hows and the wheres of woodworking
as a hobby. I also expect that it will also cover needed repairs around the home
and projects of necessity (honey dos).
I must explain here, that I am not writing this as an expert. Not even. I am very
far from it. I am a rank amateur with just enough experience to be a danger to
myself and anyone nearby. This blog will be, at least in part, the story of my
 progress and evolution as a woodworker. Hopefully, we all can benefit and
learn from my experience. And perhaps, I can also learn from you through
 comments to one of my posts and thus, we both grow.
It will examine some of the motivation. We all have different motivations for
doing woodworking, or anything else, for that matter. Sometimes it might be as
simple as “I am retired and my wife wants me out of the house,” or “I am retired
and am totally bored with golf.”
It will also examine needed resources and costs. Resources and costs can
include facilities, tools, money, materials and time. I intend to address each of
these on a case-by-case basis.

Whenever possible, I will post useful tips and will use videos and other graphics
as skill permits.

Topics already in the pipeline include the workshop, tools, safety and
techniques. If you have any suggestions for topics, please let me know in the
comments below.
