Pinewood - Popular and Versatile
Pinewood is highly popular in interior design and furniture.
It's one of the most recognisable types of wood and is used all over the world. We like pine. It has a freshness and it's bright tone adds colour to home interiors. And because it's soft, the wood is perfect for carving. Oak is longer lasting and we like oak. But pine is strong and shock-resistant and therefore perfect for making furniture, especially if you like rustic style.
Pine for pine. Pine is one of the most important trees for their timber and woodworking uses. It's widely used in carpentry objects such as furniture, floors and window frames, panelling and roofing. We like pine. pic.twitter.com/U9jgiJcQdb— Gerrymet Ltd (@sawblades_uk) August 2, 2019

The Complete Guide to Joint-Making by John Bullar
When learning woodworking and joinery, the journey from apprentice to professional is a long and fulfilling one. To master the trade it's neccessary to read some guide books like The Complete Guide to Joint-Making by John Bullar.
A five-star review of the book says: This is a very good book. I’d just completed a week course on basic cabinet making and thought I’d buy it. It covers all the things we did on the course and much more, has clear and concise guides and good pictures. I’ve seen other similar books that while look good, aren’t as easy to follow. It really takes you through every cut and has some great projects, tips, and tricks of the trade. Highly recommended!
That's high praise. So if you want to invest in this joinery book, visit the page below and click on Amazon.
