Courses and training

[Jmill]

Hello, i'm looking into getting into the chainsaw milling lark! I'm a groundie for a big tree surgery firm and also have my own small tree work business. So lots of access to good wood. I'd like to start milling it up and making tables and benches ect. I have no experience of doing this but with the help of friends in the game and the good old Internet I hope to learn fast. Ideally though I'd like to do some kind of course in basic joinery for such things as tables and benches. But here's the problem, I live on the beautiful isle of Wight and we have nothing like that here, is anyone aware of a course or some kind of training /help nearby? I'd be prepared to travel within reason, but obviously an evening course on the isle of Wight would be perfect but heh. Any help would be great, cheers

Yeah that seems to be the way, I've got a good few books already. Are there any particular YouTube vids that stand out as helpful? Thanks
