Audel's makes a great carpentry guide

Watch the New Yankee Workshop, too.

so there's seriously no books out there that teach carpentry? Doesn't sound right

Time Life "The Art of Woodworking"
25 volumes and used to be available via torrent

at the risk of sounding like a condescending physicist:

is there actually anything to learn?

i mean you jsut have to have a feel for basic statics, and work a lathe/drill/chisel/saw/sander

the only thing you might need a book on might be wood types and finishes, but other than that, isn't it all just experience and talent?

and a plane, forgot the plane. and a miter. I imagine you'd figure out what you needed as you figured out what you'd wanna do.

I guess so, I've never done any DIY stuff before. I know nothing about wood, grains, fixtures, fittings or tools. Literally nothing. I'd imagine there has to be stuff to learn, seen as professional carpenters typically do an apprenticeship before being considered competent.
