I have been starting the process of learning hand woodworking by watching the likes of Paul Sellers. It is amazing how much knowledge there is available on YouTube about craftsmanship. Combining YouTube with niche web forums multiplies the learning power. I'm already able to dimension boards with nothing but a hand plane, a combination square, a depth gauge, and winding sticks. I'm just at the start of my journey but I'm so thankful YouTube and all these creators are out there to introduce me to this new hobby!
- weaksauce 7y agopaul sellers is great! such a gem. check out wood work web, johnathan katz moses, pask makes, izzy swan and jackmanworks... as well as some of the older videos from William Ng. they are all quality!
- michelpp 7y agoThanks for the pointers, I like Essential Craftsman too, a bit of philosophy with some great technique and history thrown in.
- coldpie 7y agoHey, welcome. It's a great fun hobby. Check out Chris Schwarz's books, The Anarchist's Toolchest and The Anarchist Design book (the titles make more sense after you read them). There's an essay in Toolchest called "Three Tables" that basically describes my theory on craft, it's uncanny.
