Not really. There ares some who do workshops/etc (I know some in Bangalore - Masterclass, Kaydo) but they don't really have much info online. Try talking to them. By the way if you are from there, there's IWST you might want to look at.

The tools and the wood - I kept trying but I couldn't really figure out a way to procure these easily and with some help in selection. Getting them from abroad would cost multiple limbs.

Thanks! I am in Bangalore and will definitely give IWST a try. Btw, I found a DIY woodworking site from India https://indiandiy.blogspot.com/

Were you able to get some info on how to procure tools and wood etc?
