Beginning with design creation, students new to wood spend the week making basic stools and small tables, exploring how to make their designs come to life. Students learn how to operate and understand woodworking machinery, focusing on safety and craftsmanship. More advanced students take advantage of Brad’s expertise, learning new skills and working through design problems. Participants leave with beautiful, personalized, well-built furniture that stands the test of time and adds a unique flair to any living or workspace.
