Interested in Carpentry Woodworking? The Secret to Success is in the Plans

The problem faced by most people when starting any new hobby is they know what they want to do, but have lack any idea where to start. In this case, the first step is to figure out what you want to make. Was there a specific item you wanted, such as a table or chair? Were you just looking for something to do to pass the time? Or perhaps your spouse said your needed a hobby! I have a lot of hobbies, and I am always starting something new, but the first step I always take is to ask myself where I want to end up. In the case of carpentry woodworking, it’s very helpful to peruse a large number of projects to really find what your interested in.

Once you have come to terms with what you want to make, the next most important step is space consideration. The amount of space you will need is directly proportional to the size of the items that you will be making. For example, if you want to make small craft projects, and you only require a scroll saw and perhaps a few assorted hand tools, space will be minimal. However if you intend to get into cabinetry, the space requirements increase significantly, in order to accommodate a table saw, and numerous other large bench tools. Most people interested in a large workshop will setup in the basement or the garage.

Next, you will want to make sure any workspace you choose is dry, or can be kept dry through the use of a dehumidifier. Most bench tools have uncoated steel tables which will rust with time. Additionally, if there is any chance of flooding or sewer backup (in the case of a basement), you will want to make sure your tools are elevated off the floor. It’s not only bad for the equipment, but a serious safety hazard as well.

Once you have determined you have a dry area to work with, you will need to examine the power requirements of the equipment you will be using.  Higher horsepower equipment will need to be run on 220v – even though some will run less smooth on 110v. Most homes have 220v capability but usually require rewiring to accomplish it. Be sure to consult a qualified electrician before making any decisions on wiring. Obviously if you’ll be making small projects, most smaller bench tools and hand tools run on 110v.

Next, you have to tackle the dust collection and ventilation issue, which is also an issue of space and power. Hardwood dust is dangerous from a health perspective, and all wood dusts present a potential fire hazard. Dust collection equipment comes in all shapes and sizes from HEPA filtered shop vacs to sophisticated systems that collect dust at the source and route to a large fabric bag – all with different collection efficiencies. In addition, there are room filtration systems to remove the very fine (and much more dangerous) dust particles from the air.

Now that you have an idea of what you want to build and you’re certain you have the space and power, you can start planning which tools you need and design a room layout. There are many online resources that can help you plan your shop layout!

As stated earlier, it’s much better to get a head start and determine what you want to build before investing money in a lot of equipment, as you will end up with a lot of stuff you don’t need. Here, you can get over 14,000 woodworking plans, for every type of project imaginable. Not only will you get a head start, but also have at your disposal a lifetime supply of plans and inspirations!

About the Author

Rob is into woodworking, especially small smaller scroll saw projects.

My stand up shower is clogged.

I have unclogged tubs before by taking off the stopper and pulling all the hair out…. However in my stand up shower I took the drain screen off after plunging the hell out of it (which did not work) I got my wet/dry vac out and sucked out all of the water so that I could see down the drain with a flashlight. I don’t see anything that could be blocking the pipes… the pipe goes straight down for about a foot or so then curves. Any ideas??… I don’t think it could be the sewer line cause I don’t have this problem in the other shower or with other drains.
