After posting this in another thread, I realized this is perhaps one of the best things I learned here in this forum, so thank you to you all for the support and help you've given me...
Tip #1 n reference to cutting on or off the line...
Tip #2 I wish I found this site sooner! Spend as much time as you can on this site and don't be afraid to ask questions. The people here are perhaps the most welcoming, friendly and helpful I've ever encountered on any forum website!
Tip #3 If this is a hobby, treat it as such. It can be an expensive hobby if you let it get out of control. Buy things you need (tools, wood, accessories) as you need them instead of all at once. And most of all... HAVE FUN!
