I've been attempting to learn some primitive/medieval skills (flint knapping, woodworking, etc.) and it is difficult to find someone that can "mentor" me lol There aren't a lot of people around me using the old ways or the old tools (much like the tool they had to craft for the production of the Dhaka muslin, some of the skills and tools for primitive woodworking are near lost as well). I have to find niche youtube videos and scour the internet for hours to find some stuff. Skills that promote self sustainability are what I'm after. De-skilling is a real issue lol

Sure! Would you happen to know which forum would be most appropriate for old skills related things?

First I coarse sand with a power tool. Then I manually work around nails, and finish.
