neyvnxxx – thanks mate, I’ve taken a look at Howarth Timber seems they only have a limited set of products for delivery to my neck of the woods (N. Ireland), shame really as they seem pretty decent!
martyn – thanks this is exactly what I was looking for initially, just something cheap to practice cutting joints etc on so cheers for this brilliant!

That’s encouraging to know about the bench and yes I agree you are right the joints are large so may be a bit more accessible to me with with some initial practice. I do have a couple of question if you would be so kind:
1. I’ve been told that I should probably start with soft woods rather than hard as they are more forgiving to the novice woodworker, would you agree?
2. For people based in the UK where do you source your wood? I assume you don’t buy a lot from the the big retail places, local builders merchant perhaps? Do they sell in relatively small batches?
Thanks all for your help so far.

Thank you I will checkout those videos on YouTube and add the Mallet video to the list from Phil. I certainly agree with the ‘no compromises’ statement it’s something I have to practice everyday in my day job.
