5 DAY CLASS

The 5-day class is for beginner to advanced students with the option of selecting one of our designs (see projects below) or one of their own choosing. Classes are usually limited to two students so there is plenty of one-on-one instruction. Students in these classes are also eligible to stay in one of our guest rooms for no additional charge. Most projects are completed except for finish in five days but if addition time is needed, Saturday may be added for $400.

SAWDUST 101

In this class we start at zero. Our goal is to offer beginners a safe and fun introduction to woodworking. Safe use of most of the common hand and power tools will be thoroughly covered. Safety is a high priority and we will make sure everyone learns good habits when using power tools. Students will choose two of the three projects we offer (see projects below) and leave Sunday with two completed projects, new skills and added confidence.
