What you can expect to learn during this introductory woodworking course

In this introductory Carpentry course, we can help you to develop your woodcraft skills, learning how to cut, decorate, assemble, and finish, perfect for those looking to get hands on practical experience.

You’ll be taught about woods and how their grain affects the project and the tools. You will also learn about techniques that can save a lot of time or simultaneous work that can save you from overexerting when you make your projects. This course is ideal for beginners as it starts from the beginning and works its way up to an advanced level.

Following a tailor designed course, you will be guided through how to: Identify different tools and what their perfect use is. Understand about the need of health and safety in a workshop and the precautions to take to minimise risk to yourself or others. Use the tools to cut material into correct lengths. Learn how to incorporate digital technology to add computer-controlled designs to your item. And learn how to successfully assemble your items and fix them securely.

The skills in which you will acquire in this course give you the skills that allow you to be able to work in R2D and do basic projects out of wood like cutting boards, small boxes, gift boxes and other basic two-dimensional construction projects out of wood.

This course will you be using conventional hand tools and basic equipment for carpentry and woodwork. You will start from the basics using hand tools and eventually in the later courses work up to sync milling machines and power tools. You’ll be using saws, hammers, chisels, planners, presses and the other conventional carpentry tools that are available within our workshop.

 

You will also be introduced to power tools such as the miter saw which allows you to cut with precision and add angles to any conception, but you decide to do. In advanced courses routers an electric cleaners will be added to make the workflow a lot easier.

Our advice

Because woodworking can be dangerous and dirty, we recommend that you wear old clothes or work clothes especially designed for the project at hand. We have all the security equipment like goggles that protect your eyes, gloves that protect your hands, and any first aid equipment in case a problem arises. For the longer courses it’s a good idea to bring lunch if you’ll be staying the day.
