circular saw. A circular saw cuts much faster than a draft saw and is easier to make straight and clean cuts with it. It is also very useful for cutting large plywood boards, even if you already have a table saw. At this point you have enough tools for some simple project like this table or some shelving for storage.

 

Now you should consider getting a hand-held carpenter's brush or two and maybe a carpenter's bench with your carpenter's screw. It can be a good challenge to build a workbench that will serve as a carpenter's bench as you are at it.

With the tools mentioned above you can already tackle some basic projects like these:

 

• Workbench

• simple and resistant 2x4

• Table bed

• Single table

• Shoe cabinet

• Low storage building Easels

 

 

Basic carpentry tips for beginners

 

Have a variety of tools: If you are starting in the carpentry you will not have many tools, but they should be varied.

 

Keep your tools well: For a correct conservation of the tools, these cannot be stored in any way. Tools that have a delicate edge, for example, must be kept in a suitable position so that it is not damaged by poor position or contact with other tools.

 

Buy or build a good workbench: You cannot do good carpentry work without a good workbench. Acquire or build a large workbench, which allows you to carry out all kinds of works.

 

Try to be in a secluded place, where you do not disturb or interfere with other rooms of the house.

 

The measures are very important: Always measure the materials you are going to use for a project, the workspace, the place where you will place the work... Take measures of everything you can, since a bad measurement can create a domino effect that can have disastrous effects on the final project.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How to sand a surface

 

When working with wood, sanding is a key step in preparing the surface. If you do not have experience in the matter, experts recommend starting with a coarse sandpaper, and then finishing with a finer sandpaper. It is also important to sand in the direction of the grain.

 

How to varnish wood

 

After sanding, varnishing the wood is another of the most important phases in the carpentry. In this case you have to take care of two very important aspects: the brush, which should be as large and flat as possible, and porosity. Check if the wood is more or less porous to choose the best varnish and know how many layers to apply.

 

Practice a lot

 

Practice makes a master. Although at first it costs you to carry out some projects, keep trying. No one is born learning, and carpentry is a technique that can be improved with constancy and practice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trust a professional

 

If you see that a project is getting out of hand or you do not have enough skills to carry it out, do not hesitate to hire a professional carpenter. Leaving the project in good hands will avoid risks to your health and will not damage the materials, which can sometimes have a high cost.
