any good websites to learn basic carpentry and use of tools?
I just got admission in the Uni in the carpentry course and its been a week but still can’t get how to use the tools and learn basics of carpentry. Like where to start with? I got all the basic tools needed. You know, I would like to know some good websites that start from the basics and then go deeper into the understanding of Carpentry, building and construction.
Appreciate any help. Cheers.

………….Personal Note……………………….
Most carpenters already have a basic knowledge of how to use the tools. Clearly you need some practice. You will also need to be good in math. If you can’t read a ruler or a tapemeasure you are in deep do.
You’ll need to know how to figure fractions.
Your first skills should be in math/algebra/geometry/calculus.
Get some experience cutting and measuring lengths of wood and above all learn to cut Crown Molding especially if you plan to become a Master Carpenter. Watch all of the "How to" shows…To see how those tools are used.
