This class is for anyone interested in building their own furniture. No prior experience required, but basic tools are necessary- drill, saw, measuring tape, eye/ear/lung protection, speed square. You'll also need screws- pocket hole or regular wood screws depending on how you build. Optional tools: miter/circular/jig saw, pocket hole jig, glue and clamps.
