Our goal for this workshop is to learn safe basic woodworking skills and have fun while doing it! We will go over safe machine usage, how to select the right woods for your board, processing the lumber and finally finishing the project so you will have a board to take home and use! By the end of class, each student will be confident in their abilities to start their woodworking journey.
Please wear close-toed shoes, full length pants, and no loose/dangly garments or jewelry. We will provide PPE like safety glasses, dust masks, etc. but you are welcome to bring your own. Otherwise, just bring yourself and be ready to have a good time!
This is a 2-day workshop! Saturday, Feb 3rd 10 am-2 pm and Sunday, Feb 4th 1-5 pm. You will need to attend both sessions to complete your project. You only need ONE ticket, it includes both days!
Age 16+, under 18 MUST be accompanied by a guardian.
This workshop is part of our "Inclusion" series where we invite anyone who may not feel comfortable using these tools to join us in the metal or wood shop (or both!), learn some new skills, and meet other people who are also new to this! All of our instructors for this series are prepared for complete beginners, we hope you will join us!
