Want to give woodworking a go but don’t know where to start?
Our one-day workshop experience is the perfect taster session. Suitable for complete beginners, over the day you will be introduced to (and try your hand at using) all of the main tools and fundamental techniques of traditional woodworking.
Under our tuition, you ‘ll safely develop the basic skills and understanding to work confidently with wood and you’ll put these new skills to work on a series of quick projects to take home. You will also learn to design and plan your work, which tools to buy to build your own toolbox and where to source sustainable timber.
Each day will be slightly different, but you can expect to cover measuring and marking out, sawing accurately, chiselling, planing timber smooth, sanding and shaping.
This is an ideal short course for anybody who’s curious about woodworking but isn’t quite ready to commit to a longer course, creative craftspeople looking to explore a new medium and/or DIY enthusiasts who want to extend and develop their practical woodworking skills.
All classes take place 9:15 – 17:00 at our workshop (Froe Studio, Edith Road Workshops, 15 Edith Road, Oxford, OX1 4QB).
Courses are limited to 5 learners.
Courses are 18+ (or 16- and 17-year-olds with a participating responsible adult)
A light lunch and tea and coffee are included.
Please wear closed toe stout shoes and clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty or dusty.
We will give full safety briefings and ensure all activates are as safe as possible, however, we will be using sharp things and accidents can happen. By booking onto a course you are accepting that you are attending at your own risk and you will be asked to sign a waiver before the course begins.
