- Clear softwood is an easy-going choice for beginners; even dried branches make excellent workpieces.
- Japanese saws are highly effective, but supervise their use with beginners.
- Stiff-bladed utility saws are easier for beginners to use than thinner, double-sided flush-trimming saws.
- A spokeshave is an excellent introductory tool for kids. Smoothing planes are easy to handle.
