Quickly End Your Woodworking Carpentry Frustration -
5 Helpful Tips by Derick Andrews
It looked like it would fit through the doorway but was one inch too big.
Lesson learned!
Planning your time is an important. You don't want to be outside in the dark
and cold cutting wood. Try do do this before it gets dark and carry on with
internal later in the evening. Remember to plan your woodworking project
and get as much information as you can off the internet.
Level
Like a layout square, the level is absolutely a must to ensure the integrity of
your finished pieces. Being new to the hobby, you might think you can
eyeball each step of your woodwork plans in progress and it'll turn out okay.
But you'd be surprised to find that's not the case. With a level, you'll not
only ensure that each angle is right but that the results of your angles are as
expected.

Tape Measure
Maybe you have a ruler lying around the house, but you'll soon get tired of
lining it up multiple times to measure anything over 12 inches. You'll also be
much less likely to make careless mistakes when you have a tape measure
handy. Choose one that is at least twelve feet in length!
Screwdrivers
Like the hammer, this seems obvious, but you'll want to get a comfortable,
larger size screwdriver at first. The last thing you want to do is strip the
heads of screws on a project you're nearly done with, so invest in a good
Phillips head screwdriver for your furniture woodworking projects. You'll also
need a flat head screwdriver. Unlike the Phillips, you may want to invest in a
somewhat smaller size for this screwdriver at first. Large flat head
screwdrivers might not work with tiny screws. And, as with the hammer
(and other equipment on this list) you'll probably end up having a collection
of each type. But when you're first starting out, it's best to invest in the
most versatile tools you can. Before long, you'll be saving up for those extra
nice-to-have tools!
I'm a bit of a woodworking enthusiast, but I'm still a beginner. The
successful outcome of my woodworking projects depends heavily upon my
finding the best easy woodworking plans. Finding step by step woodworking
projects that suit my ability can be difficult, but I've made some
observations about searching for plans that might be of use to others.
A Wealth of Options
It's not that there aren't enough resources out there for woodwork project
plans. Far from it. In fact, many of my frustrations in finding my
woodworking projects come from there being too many resources, rather
than not enough. It can be overwhelming. However, it's better than the
other potential problem-not having enough plans available.
Free Woodworking Plans Online
The obvious first choice for finding carpentry project plans is the Internet.
And, indeed there are hundreds of thousands of plans available. The
difficulty is in sorting through them to find exactly what you need. And while
search engines can help, they can't always precisely indicate how clear the
instructions are, whether or not there are diagrams, or how detailed the
steps are. That doesn't mean you should discard the Internet as a resource,
however. Instead, narrow your search another way.
