If your starting a new creative wood craft project there are a few things I would like you to consider first before diving straight in. My first thought is that you have some interest in woodworking or you would not be here reading my advice.

My first bit of advice is quite important, make sure you use a good wood craft plan for your project, then with your plan you can also add other things to enhance your project but I will get to that later.

Select the correct wood craft pattern and project for you. It's always best to have some sort of idea of what type of project you will be starting, if you don't you will not know what kind of pattern to look for. Saying that, if you are a bit undecided it also helps looking over different woodworking patterns you can purchase, this may give you inspiration for your project. Once you have made your mind up on the project you wish to do there will be some pointers I can give that will be helpful about the pattern.

When your are ready to choose your desired pattern, make sure you choose one that is best suited to your level and current ability. Many wood craft patterns will supply a rating to give you an idea if it's suitable for you. Smile ratings like beginner, intermediate and advanced. So try choose a pattern that is best suited. Good patterns will be very detailed in the instructions so look out for simple written guides that leave you scratching your head.

Be sure that you choose a pattern with diagrams also a materials list. There are obvious reasons for choosing a woodworking pattern with diagrams as it's easier to build what you see, also your more inspired when you can see your project's end result. Also a good note is to find a pattern with diagrams for every step.

So your nearly there you have pretty much finished the construction side of your project, now is not the time to stop.The finishing touches are what create the final master piece. There is nothing worse taking away the end results beauty by not finishing your handmade crafts properly. All wood piece's require some type of protection, the best protection will be determined by what type of wood craft project you do and what it will be used for and so on. Any major woodworking store or wood smith will be able to advise on the best protection for your piece.
