I’d really love to start making something, even if it’s basic. Any tips on where to start? Tools, wood, etc?

Books helped me learn a lot about joints during my foray into ww 🪵 check out your local library. Good luck!

If your local library is no good, you can also try Project Gutenberg: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/search/?query=woodworking. Has an exhaustively detailed book on joints in particular, plus an assortment of beginners’ manuals. A lot of hand tool stuff hasn’t changed all that much in the past century.
