About

Welcome! My name is Rex Krueger and like many of you, I am human. This, alongside my love for hand tool woodwork and filmmaking inspired me to start the YouTube series "Woodwork for Humans". It has been over 5 years since that journey began and I have somehow managed to amass a collection of beginner friendly projects, write two books, start a tool company and cultivate an incredible community of fellow learners who inspire one another as much as myself. I hope you will consider learning along with us and as always: Thanks for Watching. Disclaimer: My videos are for entertainment, learning and inspiration. Woodworking can be dangerous and safety is always the number one priority.
