Description
In this class students will learn the art of woodworking, how to use various hand tools, building techniques, & math skills. All beginners will start by making a spin top, which gives them a taste of most of our tools and how to use them, after which they can choose from a host of pre-chosen projects as well as creating ideas of their own. Projects may include birdhouses, toy cars, boats, treasure chests, book shelves and whatever our imagination comes up with! Some of the tools we use are brace drills, egg beater drills, try squares, coping saws, hand saws, & c-clamps. This program offers children a creative outlet whilst learning vital skills that will serve them throughout their entire lives.

About the provider
Nurturing craftsmanship. Why are our students extra-stoked? Freedom of choice. We guide–they build. We believe in borderless imagination. With Woodworkers Academy, every day is an opportunity for self-expression and growth, making woodworking a personal adventure for all.
In this hands-on woodworking program, students will learn to safely use a variety of traditional hand tools, explore fundamental building techniques, practice carpentry-related math skills, and have a fun building! All new students start by building a classic spin top — a fun, foundational project that introduces them to our core tools and how to use them effectively. From there, students can choose from a variety of pre-designed projects or dream up their own creations. Possible builds include birdhouses, toy cars, boats, treasure chests, bookshelves, and more — the only limit is their imagination! Some of the tools we use include brace drills, eggbeater drills, tri-squares, coping saws, hand saws, and C-clamps. This program gives kids a creative outlet while teaching real-world skills they’ll carry for life.
