Gain confidence, use the right tools, and start building! This intro to woodworking class is in Wave Pool's newly refurbished woodshop with local woodworking specialist Scottie Bellissemo. This class is designed for beginning woodworkers to get in the woodshop and learn how to safely operate a variety of powertools including the table saw, chop saw, band saw, drill press, plainer, and joiner. The class will also go over some basic hand tool techniques and cover some basic joinery, shapping, sanding, and finishing procedures. Each participant will work to create a series of small handcrafted projects by the end of the course. Class size is small (maximum of 4), with ample time and space for individualized lessons and attention. Wave Pool membership is not included but participants in this class who choose to become members will be able to skip the woodshop orientation class in order to work in the woodshop during open hours in the future.

Tuesdays, January 15 - March 5 2019, 3:00-5:30pm. 8 classes total. Register via Eventbrite, https://www.eventbrite.com/e/intro-to-woodworking-tickets-51343738504
