Thanks for the advice Josie.

If you or anyone can recommend a suitable book that I can find on Amazon
maybe, that would be great.

Hi,

I am a complete novice to woodwork and wondered if there were any
books, videos, dvds or websites you could recommend.

I am interested in furniture making and toys.

I have a week long carpentry course starting soon and would like a
head start.

Any recommendations most welcome.

Thanks

Lucky you! Bet there are a lot of people here who would say they wished
they had started out in a formal class rather than picking up information
and skills by pits and pieces. Until your classes start you might check
out
the contents of your local library. You'll get to look at lots of things
without cost and be able to consider buying the books your course may
recommend. Somewhere around here there is a list of books most of the
group would recommend - it usually pops up every few days.
