There are two areas in woodworking using woodworking hand tools that people tend to have trouble with at first. These are measuring and cutting with exact accuracy – two absolutely essential skills to be a good woodworker. Here is a tip to help you with measuring:
When you measure a piece of wood add on 1/8th an inch at the end before you cut it. The trick now is to use a stop block on the fence of your miter saw, and use playing cards to get it just right. Edge it up the the right size by lacing playing cards one by one in between the stop block and the piece of wood until it fits perfectly. Then cut it to size!

Wow, it’s pretty rare to see someone put things into perspective the way you just did. I wish that other bloggers and people that post content to the web would take a page from your book! Do you have any other sites that I could visit or could you possibly make a recommendation as to where I might be able to find some more information? Either way, thanks for an excellent resource and I look forward to being a repeat reader!

This is importatant beginner woodworkers start to know how to use and master hand tools first to go trough their projects, before going further with heavier machinery.
I agree with you on the two essential skills (measuring and cutting with exact accuracy) to become a good woodworker. Basics are always the best starting point.
