Hi my name is Walt and I'm just starting out in woodworking. My current (and first) project is making a mallet. I've really been enjoying using hand tools, which is good because I live in apartment, so not much scope for power tools. I'm setting my sights on making a small wall-mounted work bench with a face vise so I can make projects at home. I'm reading Chris Shwarz's "The Anarchist's Workbench", which has been great. Any other recs for books on workbenches would be appreciated!
Cheers all,
Walt
