Stephen, don't give up. If you really want to do woodworking there is always a way. Hand tools in a spare bedroom or carving in your lap. You can build a lot of hand tool skill without needing all that many resources or space.

You can always rent space in a 24/7 storage facility.
I did it for a while when I was in a condo.
Or, see if there’s a maker’s space near you.
Build her a few useful things and she’ll become a supporter

I've never carved them myself before, but I helped my dad, who had a great machine and many wood carving tools in the garage. I have always been interested in this, and recently we decided to replicate a door from the '30s that we saw at LINK DELETED We got it a couple of weeks later with great carved wood all over the door. We installed it in my room. My dad said that's exactly what I deserved.
