Woodworking Basics - Kids Class - South

Hello and welcome to Woodworkers Academy! In this class students will learn the basics 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 each 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 can include birdhouses, toys, treasure chests, book shelves and whatever we can think of. Using our imagination is half the fun! The tools we use include brace drills, egg beater drills, try squares, coping saws, hand saws, c-clamps and other various small hand tools. This program offers children a creative outlet whilst learning vital skills that can serve them throughout their entire lives.
