I've been thinking about getting into woodworking as a hobby, specifically making things like side tables without using screws. Is this a reasonable place to start for someone who's new to woodworking, or should I consider something simpler first?

Absolutely go for it! It's all about having fun with it. You can totally make a table without screws. Just start with smaller projects and enjoy the process. Trust me, the satisfaction of creating something yourself is unbeatable. Plus, you'll learn a ton and be ready to tackle bigger projects in no time!
Starting with side tables sounds like a solid plan! Just keep in mind that larger pieces, especially flat tabletops, can be tricky to handle. But for smaller projects, you can usually get away with just glue instead of screws, which simplifies things a lot.

That's great advice! And remember, we all mess up along the way, so don't stress too much about making mistakes.
