STL359: Making the Most of Shop Time

Woodworking is short bursts

From Matt:
I’m curious how you juggle shop time and family. I wanna build a desk, which will be a pretty large project for me. It’ll likely take a few hundred hours to design and build. I haven’t built anything in the last three years. I can’t imagine building a complicated, for me, project in 45-minute to two-hour increments. Do you have any recommendations or tips that might help avoid mistakes caused by constant starting and stopping? I’d also be interested in any online courses or articles that have come in the last few years that would give me a refresher course on shop safety. The table saw can be a fickle mistress, and I don’t wanna put myself in a bad situation that could lead to injury.+
