Do a search for any topics you're interested in and you may be surprised by the amount of knowledgable content there.

I am sure the boys and girls on this board will be willing to share their knowledge with someone who is obviously prepared to learn,Tom

Hey Shaun, if you love woodwork, why don't you get into cabinet making or furniture or something? When you're a builder, you'll be too busy organising subbies, arranging deliveries, dealing with clients and doing paperwork to pick up the tools. All the other guys will be having all the fun

Shaun,
Welcome to the board.
I was 16 when I built my first sailboat which I was quite proud of but I didn't have the purpose in my mind that you have. I wound up doing an apprenticeship in aircraft instrument making :eek:
Go for it mate - just like a doctor, you can specialise after you've qualified if you want to, in whatever you want to
Enjoy
