FAQ
What's the difference between plywood vs particle board?
Plywood is made up of layers of wood pressed together under pressure. Plywood can be cut to different thicknesses. It's commonly used as flooring and cabinets. Particle board can be made from sawdust, resin, and then compressed to make large blocks. This board is commonly used in home improvement projects. Both boards can be cut easily and are both durable.
How do I identify the type of wood that I am dealing with?
Always verify the label on wood purchases. The label should include information about the wood species and its moisture content as well as whether or not it has been treated using preservatives.
Can I make my living doing this job?
Yes! In fact, many woodworkers already do. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median annual woodworker wage was $34,000 in May 2012. This is much higher than the national median of $31,000 per annum.
What kind and type of wood should i use?
There are many wood types that are used in woodworking, including oak, maple and birch. Each wood type has its own characteristics which affect the final product's appearance and feel.

How To
How to drive a nails in wood
To drive a nail into wood, the first step is to select the right size and type hammer. The most common types of hammers are claw hammers, sledgehammers, mallets, ball peen hammers, and hatchets. Each type of tool has its advantages and drawbacks. A clawhammer works best when hitting something hard like nails. However, it can sometimes be difficult to see exactly where the strike is going. The sledgehammer works well for large areas, but is too heavy for smaller tasks.
After selecting the right hammer, you will need to place your hand flat against one side of the head. The handle should rest comfortably in your hands. Grab the handle tightly, but do not squeeze too hard. Keep your wrist relaxed and the hammer straight up. Now, move the hammer towards the center of the nail by swinging it back. You should feel the impact of your hammer hitting the nail. Try practicing with a block to help you master the art of swinging a stick.
Once you are ready to drive the nail, place the hammer close to your body. Position the nail, so it's perpendicular to the surface of the wood. Keep your eyes on the tip. Swing the hammer forward, and then move the hammerhead. This can be repeated several times to increase the speed of your swing. When you are confident with the technique, add power to your swings. Hold the hammer high above your shoulders and pull it down. This way, you'll be able to put more energy behind your blows.
Once you have made the first hole, remove your hammer. To remove the remainder of the nails, you can use a screwdriver/pry bar. To avoid splitting the wood, make sure the nail heads are not touching the board's surface.
