Upcoming Wood Preparation Live Q&A

ByPaul Sellers

It’s time for another Q&A session and this time it is live! We want to do these more regularly so we’ve decided to have a ‘theme’ each time, to focus on one topic. This week our Q&A will be on wood preparation.

Thank you if you sent in your questions and I will do my best to answer them! You can watch it here:

      1. Pleasure! It was really for the benefit of non British folk, so they know what it really means!

        1. There is only one global time for a global audience, it is UTC.
          Not every Country uses summer time and not every country change at the same date.
          I always need an extra second to figure out what is the meaning of “am” and “pm”; it is disturbing for me.

  2. Hi I am planing on staring on Paul’s workbench next month . But the ahead I planing on putting in is use to hold a lot other stuff . This mines I only have room for the bench. I was thinking of putting up a stand alone sead .what size would Paul say would be the mimmu I could go in a sead ?

    1. The smallest bench I have worked from has been around 36″ long and 22″ deep by 38″ high, Thomas.

      1. Thank you Paul for the answer but I was asking about the size of a shead I could use as a workshop . Sorry my typing is not to good . Thomas from Ireland

        1. For a hand-tool only woodworking shed, I would not go below 2 m X 3 m with enough ceiling height to turn a 2.5 m board. Then one might want extra space to store some lumber. My workbench is about 1.5 X 0.6 m.

        2. Hi Thomas, Sylvain pretty much nailed it with the minimum size. Until I finish my bigger working space that is what I have at the moment (it was a laundry stuck on the back off the house originally). The only caveat I would place on it is if you have the opportunity to build in/ retrofit a set of double doors then anything long you are working on the bench can stick out through them if the weather plays ball, effectively giving you a bit more elbow room.

          1. Hi thank you guys that is about the size the budget would go to any way. To be far I don’t want much just somewhere to my self . By the way Paul good job on the q&a at 2pm today . Stay safe and well
