<p>YouTube has some great stuff on it. Add the following people to your YouTube watch list:</p>
<p></p>
<p>Paul Sellers</p>
<p>David Barron</p>
<p>Charles Neil, especially the ones about finishing "pine" and his anti-blotch pretreatment</p>
<p>Anything you can find on Sam Maloof</p>
<p>Izzy Swan</p>
<p>Chad Stanton</p>
<p>Matthias Wandel</p>

<p>(1) Shop Drawings of Shaker Furniture (combined volumes)</p>
<p>(2) Bob Flexner's "Understanding Wood Finishing"</p>
<p>(3) Bruce Hoadley's book on identifying wood, think it's from the early 1990s. Very useful if you plan to use discarded wood, reclaimed wood, buy wood from barns being torn down, etc.</p>

<p>Hi Carlos!</p>
<p>I found that Ana White (as mentioned above) is very helpful. Also, I spent an afternoon watching videos after I searched "kreg jig" in the <a href="http://www.youtube.com" target="_blank">www.youtube.com</a> search. Also, try the Chief's Shop <a href="http://chiefs-shop.com/html/plans.html" target="_blank">http://chiefs-shop.com/html/plans.html</a> </p>

<p>Happy woodworking!</p>
