Thanks to a tutorial tip by LittleBlackDuck, I thought it would be great to focus on a post tag/keyword: beginner
beginner tips
We sometimes forget that there are people who want to start woodworking and have never had a mentor, teacher, support, to pass on any of the woodworking tips to help them get started.
I recently heard/watched/read (I forget) a carpenter saying that one of his videos went viral. The video? How to hammer a nail into the wall.
As people ache to get their lives and homes more steady (plug for our sister site Homesteadian.com) they/we want to learn the hands-on skills of our grandparents.
And that means that those who know can teach what they have learned and help the beginners move forward.
You never know, you may be teaching the next Maloof how to hold a hand plane.

It is ok not to know. It is ok to ask questions. It is ok to seek help.
Everyone was at the “not knowing” stage at one point.
When you see the tag/keyword: beginner
If it is a tip: don’t scoff - support, validate, enhance, thank
If it a beginner woodworker - support, validate, teach, mentor, congratulate
Let’s make the tag/keyword “beginner” a key element of Craftisian.com! - Debbie
Hey, I'm still learning skills. But I can help folks too by passing on what I do know, wither it be a tip or a process. Always willing to help someone learn.
Great idea and much appreciated as one of those needing the help and advice. Here to soak in all the information on design, technique, etc. Thanks to all who share the details of projects!
Yes! This is wonderful. We will only get new woodworkers if we are willing to help people learn. Im most definitely still in the learning process and always appreciate help from others who are more experienced.
