Knowledge

Woodworking is not competitive, it is a craft with a long standing tradition of shared knowledge and ideas.

It is often surprising how a small fragment of knowledge can change a frustrating task into a pleasurable and rewarding one. There may be several 'right ways' to approach a given task, which can be confusing to begin with, but this choice of techniques ensures a culture of continuous debate and development and puts a range of methods at your disposal.

Whether you choose to learn at home using educational videos, books and websites; or book a training course and learn in the more structured environment of a professional workshop, school or college, the process of building up your knowledge can be every bit as satisfying as the processes of designing and making.
