Jan 30 Feb 2

Interested in woodworking? Want to learn the fundamental skills? Join carpenter hobbyists Brian Buhrow, Jerry Kuns and others with the same interests at Enchanted Hills Camp for our popular workshop for both beginning and intermediate woodworkers.

The Workshop features four days/three nights of instruction in the beautiful hills outside Napa. Instruction will cover wood turning, hand tool work and an introduction to power tools. We will learn how to measure accurately without sight, using click rules, gauge blocks, Vernier calipers and talking tape measures. The workshop leaders will talk about wood types and construction techniques and learn when to glue, when to nail and when to use screws. We will also touch on finishing techniques. Each participant will have a completed project to take home.

Individual tutoring will be available for beginning woodworkers to give them a broad familiarity with woodworking machines and tools. We all started somewhere, and this is a great opportunity to begin gaining the skills, confidence and enjoyment of woodworking.

Spouses, Companions and Partners are welcome. Registration limited to 6 participants.
