Do you love the smell of wood and want to work with it, but don't know how to get started? And what is the planer for?

We'll explain it all in our full-day course and try to establish a good foundation to build on. We will show you how wood behaves over time and what it means to mill a lumber and why you need to know it. We will show you basic woodworking tools and machines and how to use them safely. You will learn all of this on a small product of your own design.

The course focuses on more modern techniques in woodworking, using different machines for different tasks. For a more traditional and manual approach to wood, we have another special type of course.
