Hi there, I’d recommend Yuqi over at http://sperowoodwork.blogspot.com/. She is in your area and might be better able to help your friend to get started!

Hey Trevor, no worries, I’m just joking about how furious I am at the snipe. I’m really only mildly outraged. Yeah, I have no troubles with WordPress. I’ve used Blogger and Movable Type in the past, and I’ve also done a self-hosted WordPress blog. This one (hosted on wordpress.com and forwarded or mapped or whatever to my domain) lacks some of the frills of the self-hosted one but is only $10/year (plus hosting fees of less than $10/year), so the price is right! I would say it is not hard to switch from Blogger. Sure, there’ll be a learning curve but you won’t have to really look hard to find the functions you need to use. But I haven’t used Blogger for some time so I can’t speak to the benefits of one over the other.

Ah, you must have been folloring Josh’s FMM. Sorry about the “snipe” If I come across one I’ll forward/grab it for you.

Thanks for visiting my site, The wordpress looks pretty good, do you have to pay? is it hard to learn/worth switching from Blogspot?

Thanks,
Trevor

Sure thing Chris! It’s in Malaysia right now so I’ll do that after we get back (January).

Tom: Sharpening is one of those things I’ll just need to stay on top of. As it is, I’ve let almost all my tools dull, and now I’ve got a ton of work to do before I can really get to woodworking again. At least I like sharpening, once I’ve got it all set up.

Joe: As you’ll see from my blog, shop space isn’t a requirement for woodworking. Shoot, even lack of tools shouldn’t stop you! :^) My next shop (in the house into which we’ve just moved) will be a 4×8 section of our kitchen (and that will include the 2×6 bench!). I really need to think of how I can maximize the 6′ or so of wall I have as well. Get yourself some chisels (Irwins are fine) and a saw (I prefer the Japanese ryoba myself, and it’s cheap) and you’re ready to get going. You’ll figure out along the way what tool to get next!
