Learn about a different woodworking tool or technique each month in this series and build a project that puts that learning to use. 

You'll build a solid base of woodworking skills and have fun doing it. You'll learn about different kinds of wood, how to shape pieces using hand and power tools, and how to fasten them together in different ways. 

There will be a set class project each session. Have an idea for a project for a future session? The instructor will welcome suggestions.
