Intro to Wood: Short Session
Learn the basic skills, tools and safety rules of woodworking through hands on practice and exploration in the wood shop. Starting with hand tools, you will learn to measure, mark, and cut simple half lap joinery. From there you will dive into milling and dimensioning lumber, have a crash course on table saw safety, and get a chance to explore your creative side at the band saw by making a cutting board of your own design with the material you have milled. The final project, a simple trivet, will have you learning basic joinery with machines.
