Welcome, look at some youtube videos while you are equipping your workshop and ask questions if you have any.

I liked James who said there are a couple of clubs (I read wood groups) my experience tells me they can without doubt give you the best window Stuart into what equipment tools timber in other words put you on the right track as a beginner. Enjoy your membership of this forum and welcome from over here.

Peter.
