@thendrix I find it relaxing. My favorite part is trying to join wood without the use of nails or screws while keeping it strong. Dovetail joints and all. I do like using a plane on seasoned lumber.
Something important to note, you need safety equipment.
The chemicals in treated lumber aren't good.
The wood dust can cause serious issues with the lungs with some worse than others.
If enough wood dust builds up, your shop will explode violently. (Think the sugar refinery in Savannah.)
So gloves, respirator and safety glasses for you.
Shop vac and broom for the shop.
I don't know how much wood work you are planning on doing but the wood working shop I used had 2 industrial blowers going in, a large shop fan out and a high strength shop vac with custom filter. We connected the house of the vacuum to the tool being used. There would always be a few inches of dust in the corners when we were done despite the precautions. It was positive pressure when the door was shut so that was the amount of air flow venting the dust outside.
A small portion of the building was for mechanical work. There were several chainsaws kept there so you can guess how and why a whole project had to be redone.
