A working approach to woodworking, from first signal to repeatable practice
A good woodworking workflow sets the dimensions, joinery, and material movement plan before the first board is milled. After that, the project gets easier if every setup, test cut, and finishing choice is recorded while the piece is still on the bench.
A sequence I would actually hand to a teammate:
1. Define the project dimensions, joinery plan, and material list before milling starts.
2. Capture setup notes for tools, fences, jigs, and test cuts during the build.
3. Finish with sanding, finishing, and assembly observations you will want on the next project.

Open source parametric design software that is genuinely useful for plans and fixtures.
If your team has a better workflow, post it with the context around team size, constraints, and exactly where the process tends to break.
