Introduction to Woodworking
Discover the Maker in You

Build a Foundation That Lasts a Lifetime

Whether you’re brand new to woodworking or looking to sharpen your skills, this course is the perfect place to start — or start fresh. Over several sessions, you’ll build a classic Shaker-style end table, learning to safely and confidently use all the essential shop tools: the jointer, planer, table saw, bandsaw, router, and more.

For beginners, it’s a clear and supportive introduction to the craft. For those with some experience, it’s a chance to fill in the gaps, correct bad habits, and refine your techniques with guidance from experienced instructors.

What You’ll Learn

• Read and interpret woodworking plans

• Measure, mark, and cut accurately

• Joint, plane, and square lumber

• Use the table saw, bandsaw, router, and drill press safely

• Assemble, sand, and finish your project with confidence

By the end of the class, you’ll leave with a completed Shaker end table — and the confidence to keep creating in your own shop.
