Hey there, Scott here! A few days ago, I skated to your inbox with the Beginner's Bundle. A 48-page resource loaded with:
- What tools you need to get started with woodworking
- How to use a tape measure correctly
- Helpful tips for buying wood
I wanted to be sure you received the guide and check if you had any questions. Please let me know. I'm happy to help!
I'd love to take you on a quick tour of the site. C'mon, let me show you around!
Before we begin, you might be wondering:
- Who is this guy?
- And what does he know about woodworking?
I started as a self-taught woodworker and later enrolled in a handful of furniture building classes learning how to hand cut dovetails and even how to steam bend wood.
Over the years, I've learned (mainly through trial and error) how to work in a small workshop.
My shop is only 12×13, and all my tools are on wheels to maximize space. The name Saws on Skates® is a nod to my small, mobile workshop!
In 2015 I created this site to help:
- Beginners get started with woodworking
- Master your tools
- Maximize space in your small workshop
- Be a resource for easy-to-build woodworking plans
