I've just released a new course at The Hand Tool School called Orientation. Its the result of running the school for more than 7 years and learning how new woodworkers absorb information and what questions they have right out of the gate that hold them back. This semester assumes nothing, requires no previous experience and no tools. We add 4 or 5 tools and build 4 projects.
