Access to more experienced people isn't a requirement for learning a skill.

Access to a table saw isn't a requirement for making cabinets.

It makes things a lot faster and easier. At the risk of a little danger.

You probably shouldn't let a 13-year-old use a table saw without supervision either.

Why does it need to be faster and easier? I wrote about this in another reply [1], the difficulty of the trial and error process was what gave me the insight (I believe anyway). Obviously, not everyone's the same, so I don't expect my journey to map perfectly onto everybody else's, but there is definitely something to be said for the joy of finding out yourself.
