An opportunity to work independently in our supervised workshop on your own project ideas. This is our best value as it has been discounted for multi-session purchase. If you do your homework, we can help you get your wood ready to complete the project. The coaching session is for intermediate level students to develop their building skills and undertake a project at their own pace. You are expected to have a solid idea for how to make the project. These regular sessions allow time to complete the project with opportunities to attend future Thursday evenings by signing up for as many 7-sessions evenings as needed.
The four-legged stool class is offered concurrently during these sessions. If a student wants to do a fixed project, please see the separate listing for chairmaking or the 4-legged stool.
There are some restrictions in the materials you bring and the size of your project.
