About

We’ll have a few animal and creature designs available, but if you want to be creative, we’ll help you adapt your own design to work as a small desk lamp.

You'll learn how to safely operate the bandsaw and scroll saw to cut out your pieces. You also will use sanders and hand tools. And to complete the project, you can apply a non-toxic finish to bring the wood to life.

This is a fun woodworking project that utilizes many tools and techniques, but most of all, it encourages you to build something fun with your own two hands.

Details

There will be no class on President’s Day, February 19.

Details

A $15 materials fee, included in the class fee, covers everything you will need.

Class Policies

  • Ages 12-16 are welcome.
  • You must wear safety glasses and closed-toe shoes, tie back long hair, and avoid loose-fitting clothing and jewelry. We recommend bringing your own safety glasses.
