 Take your woodworking to the next level—starting at the source. This one-of-a-kind class begins with a field trip to a professional lumber yard, where you’ll learn how to select the best boards for your projects: reading grain, identifying defects, calculating board feet, and choosing species that go way beyond the big box store. Then it’s back to the shop, where you’ll master the tools and techniques to turn rough-cut lumber into clean, precise project-ready boards. Walk away with the skills (and the confidence) to source better materials, save money, and build like a pro.
