What is the course about?
If you have completed Woodwork for Beginners and would like to further your skills and knowledge this is the course for you. We will build on the skills practiced in the first course, we will learn about fixings, and begin learning about tool care and maintenance, wood joints and the practical application of them. In these supportive classes I will teach you how to work safely and efficient by working through simple projects such as a picture frame, Spice rack, cookbook stand or a wall mounted box shelving unit. You will gain skills, confidence, and advice that you can take forward to plan and build successful home projects.
