The Basic Wood Working Skill Class
These classes are for people new to wood working and want to learn how to safely operate our machines. Sign-up sheets are posted on the shop bulletin board. In one such class you will build a simple carpenters tool tote. This tote will find many uses around your home besides the obvious of carrying tools; like one place for all house hold cleaning supplies, irrigation supplies and tools or grandsons favorite beach toys.

Would You Like To Teach In The Wood Club?

The SCW Wood Club is asking members to step up and teach a class to members interested in expanding their skill or increasing their skill level. If you have a skill set that you are proficient at, we need you to teach a class. We are developing a set of lesson plans to assist in developing the program so that new classes have a base to work from. Contact Jim Rich <jim.rich1940@gmail.com>  with a short paragraph or two about what you would like to teach and your availability and how much time the class may take.
