Joerg Sprave really helps to make backyard crafting accessible, at least in terms of interest and going into the necessary planning and proof-to-concept. Really need to start looking into intro to carpentry lessons, just spending time on the weekends fooling around like this while having a hobby that earns income for more collecting seems to be a great investment in these times. Anyone happen to have a worthwhile book or two to peruse for beginners? Can't think of books off the top of my head - I've just picked up mostly second-hand tools here and there and figured it out as I've gone along - but Paul Sellers's YouTube channel and blog may be worth subscribing. |
