There are no scrap wood but just the wood that had not met the right hand
This is what an old woodworker told me when I asked his views on the craft.
As I started to look for resources/guide into the world of woodworking 5 years back I found:
- There was information overload online which was more confusing than assuring
- The books/resources where little aged and did not provide the outsider's perspective
- The context was aged or was focussed on one of the sub-genres of woodworking (Cabinet Making, Carving, Woodturning, etc.)
Those days of confusion led me to write this book with simple instructions, no-fluff content and keeping a beginner as my target audience.
It contains:
- Introduction and various sub-genres of Woodworking
- All about wood (type, selection, suitability )
- Tools, process, and Techniques
- Safety and Best Practices
- 10 Starter Projects ( Step-by-Step)
- Gluing, Finishing
- Glossary, link to free plan and an additional bonus booklet
So, if you believe in saying that the best person to guide you is the one just a few steps ahead of you, grab this book and start your journey today
Here You Go!!

A kitchen without a cabinet is like a body without a soul.
This is what a wise cabinetmaker uttered when I asked what cabinet making meant to him.
I have been practicing all the aspects of woodworking like Joinery, Woodturning, and Furniture making along with Cabinet Making, and I must say this art provides the maximum chance of impacting the overall look of your kitchen or bathroom and eventually, your home.
Cabinets, for me, are an extension of your personality and a great way to express yourself.
When I first started woodcraft, I looked desperately for a go-to guide about the specific processes and exact tools required.
The content I found online was total information overload and wasn't presented sequentially. The books were either focused on just a few processes or assumed that I already had the necessary information. Many of the books were also very dated.
There are two ways of learning: learning from SMEs (Subject Matter Experts) with years of experience, and the other is to acquire from people who are just a few steps ahead of you in their journey.
I fall into the latter group. I've spent five years on this hobby and am still learning from the experts.
I still remember my initial doubts and the first tips that helped me.
This book is for those who are still running their first lap (0-3 years) in wood-crafting and want to gain a holistic idea of the necessary processes and tools.
I've included photographs of realistic beginner projects, and I'll explain the processes and standard operating procedures associated with them.
Below are the topics you would find inside:
In the last chapter, I've provided a link to free online resources for planning your next projects.
Cheers, and let's start the exciting journey
There are very few crafts in the world which gives as much satisfaction as Pyrography- Anonymous
Whether you are a Technology professional like me or Financial Consultant or a Teacher, we all need to unwind and splash our creative juices once in a while and appreciate the power of imagination.
This book is targeted at people from diverse backgrounds, trying Pyrography as a beginner and looking for to the point, minimalistic, value-packed information to start off with their first project.
Why Pyrography?
Of all the crafts I have done, Pyrography is the most value for money. It gives me immense satisfaction and serves the purpose for which I practice the art on the weekends.
The best part is this art has got something for everyone.
If you are a beginner, get a scrap wood and use your existing soldering pen to start the artwork. Later, you can shift to a proper burner. If you like calligraphy, you can burn letters. A friend of mine is a space enthusiast, and he is making space ships!
With experience, you master the art of shading, which gives depth to the artwork. Drawing hair, fur, or skin of an animal takes time, but it is worthwhile to put the effort.
The best part of this skill is it makes one of the best presents for the loved ones. As the art ages with time, it leaves a memorable piece of history to the coming generation.
The best person to guide you is the one few steps ahead of you!
This is not a traditional book but an effort from your friend to present the experience and discussions while learning this art in the last few years. I am not an expert (there are many I know who are just fabulous) but just a learner improving with each project.
This book provides a minimalistic approach to the information required to start your first Pyrography project. It covers:
I still remember the initial doubts I had and the tips which helped me.
This book is for people who are in their first lap of Pyrography journey and want to have a holistic idea of processes, tools and need help in their initial projects.
I have included photographs of realistic projects of beginners explaining the process and standard operating procedure while starting.
So, what are you waiting for? Get this updated book and start your Pyrography Journey Today!

Woodworking is not about what children make - it's about the changes that are made within the child - Pete Moorhouse

In an ever-changing society, there aren't a whole lot of activities that are geared towards children, teens, and parents. Marketing strategies have become so specific that they target the exact age ranges.
Fortunately, if you take a step back from modern society, you can get involved in some age-old crafts and practical skills that are fun for the whole family
Woodworking is such a craft. Not only are there projects that range in difficulty for different skill and age groups, but there are some projects that can be completed by two people, giving you a chance to interact and bond with your children face to face. Without the input of noise and visual stimulation from screen entertainment, you and your children can talk to each other and create something together.
Woodworking is detail-oriented crafts, so it is best to unplug completely, removing distractions like phones and screened devices while participating. It is a good excuse for you and your children to step back and develop a different set of skills.
By utilizing this book, you'll learn why woodworking skills are important for the overall growth of our kids. You will be taught basic techniques and be introduced to the proper tools and materials for these crafts. Additionally, you'll have several beginner projects with step by step instructions to get started on with your children.
