About

In this free class, you will get a tour of the bench room and its marking tools, chisels, planes, saws, carving tools, and other equipment. Then you will explore hand saws in more depth to determine a good saw fit for your hand size and explore which type is best for different situations. You will get to use the saws, with an expert coach there to help with tips.

Details

  • This class is free but registration is required because enrollment is limited.
