Winter is nearly here and what could be better than picking up some new skills at PFW. We still have room in many of our woodworking course offerings for this Winter. A sampling is below, but please check our calendar. Practical Spray Finishing - Just Added - Bring in a completed and fully sanded PFW project and we will teach you to apply a spray finish over the course of two fast-paced days. Weekend of December 17-18
Hearth Bench - This is a beginning to intermediate based project, combining hand tool skills with good machine practices. Weekend of January 7
Total Beginner I - Our most popular introductory course, this 7 evening workshop will take you from zero experience to building a sturdy bookcase using both solid wood and cabinet-grade veneered ply. PFW will have you working safely and accurately with machine tools and hand tools, ready to go home and tackle some projects on your own that before seemed out of reach. Seven Thursday evenings, beginning January 5, 2012.
Woodworking Machinery Basics - On consecutive evenings learn to set up, and safely operate, the principal stationary woodworking tools, including the jointer, planer, tablesaw and bandsaw. Monday and Tuesday evenings, January 9 and 10, 2012 Royersford Medicine Chest - Covering the Martin Luther King three-day weekend, build this wall cabinet, suitable for use as a medicine chest (with a mirror) or a spice cabinet (using seeded glass). Weekend of Jan 14-16, 2012. Basic Carcase Construction- Learn to build the basic cabinet and suddenly you can build not only a cabinet but a vanity, a wall cabinet, an entertainment center, and on and on. Weekend of January 21. And, following in two weeks (Feb. 4-5, 2012), learn to add a door and a drawer to that same cabinet. Other furniture making courses are on the calendar as well for this Winter and early 2012. Please join us this at PFW for a great woodworking experience.
