To solve the equation \( \log_8(3m - 10) = 1 \), we can rewrite it in exponential form. The equation states that the logarithm base 8 of \( (3m - 10) \) equals 1, which means:

\[
3m - 10 = 8^1
\]

Calculating \( 8^1 \):

\[
3m - 10 = 8
\]

Now, add 10 to both sides to isolate the term with \( m \):

\[
3m = 8 + 10
\]
\[
3m = 18
\]

Next, divide both sides by 3 to solve for \( m \):

\[
m = \frac{18}{3}
\]
\[
m = 6
\]

Thus, the solution is:

\[
\boxed{6}
\]
