The Groupon Guide to: Woodworking
The common tree can be used for more than just shade and a home for snakes—you can cut it down and shape the wood into thousands of useful items. Here are some tips to get you started:
- Start with a simple project, such as a birdhouse, before moving on to an advanced project, such as a birdtrap.
- You're going to need a sharp knife. Go ahead and carve one out of wood.
- You can carve your own motorcycle, but it won't become fully functional until you tape a bunch of wires to it.
- Laziness is no excuse. Don't think of it as woodworking—think of it as should working.
- You'll know you've become a master craftsman when you can design, build, and escape from your own coffin.
