Woodworking tools and ideas

Woodworking is a useful skill for everything from furniture, construction, toys and seasonal displays. There are simple projects for the complete beginner, as well as complex plans for ornate designs. Before you get started, it may be helpful to acquire some woodworking tools, set up your workshop, and start with some easy projects.

Some basic tools may include a chisel, jigsaw, lathe, saw, bradawl, gimlet, drill, gauges, hammer, sand paper, set square, screw, bevel, etc. A chisel is a tool with a characteristically shaped cutting edge (such that wood chisels have lent part of their name to a particular grind) of blade on its end, for carving and/or cutting a hard material such as wood, stone, or metal. A jigsaw is a tool used for cutting arbitrary curves, such as stencilled designs or other custom shapes, into a piece of wood or similar material. It is usually used in a more artistic fashion than other saws, which only cut in straight lines and exist mainly to cut pieces of wood to length for building structure. In this way, it is similar to the rasp and the chisel. A lathe is a machine tool which spins a block of material to perform various operations such as cutting, sanding, knurling, drilling, or deformation with tools that are applied to the workpiece to create an object which has symmetry about an axis of rotation.

The workshop should be laid out for efficiency and for maximizing work space. The table saw and table router should be centrally located and surrounded by plenty of space on both sides for working with large pieces of stock. The heart of the shop is the combination table saw and router table. These stationary tools are positioned in the centre of the room to allow the maximum area for handling pieces of stock. There is more than ten feet of clearance on either side of these pieces, so large board and sheets of stock can easily be fed over the surface. In close proximity to the table saw and router is a sturdy workbench and assembly table. Behind the assembly table is a set of tool cabinets. Plenty of well-organized wall storage is a key element of a functioning workshop.

Contemporary woodworking designs

Simple projects to get you started can include a sawhorse, picnic table, a bookcase, a chest, or a chair. One of the most important tools for any wood shop is a good sawhorse--preferably a matched pair of them. Sturdy and dependable sawhorses, superior to most manufactured ones or those made from kits, are easy to build from lumber you may already have around the workshop.  Sawhorses may be made from almost any commonly available wood, from scrap lumber to expensive hardwood. The quality of wood should be based on the type of work it will be used for.

For the more advanced, projects will include techniques such as wood turning, parquetry, marquetry, and solid and veneer construction techniques. To become an accomplished woodworker, it is important to start with a strong basic foundation of knowledge about wood, tools and techniques. Essential to the successful completion of any project is an understanding of the design process and an ability to communicate ideas graphically.

As a result, I've collected material on medieval and renaissance woodworking for my own use.
