Weekly Woodworking Workshop – Self-Paced Adult Woodworking Skills Training
The Bull City Woodshop, 1912 E Pettigrew St,, Durham, NC, USThe cost of this class is $75, and you must register through our website here.
***
Weekly Woodworking Workshop is a guided, self-paced woodworking program for adults who want to build real woodworking skills through project-based learning.
This class uses Bull City Woodshop’s hands-on curriculum, originally developed for our youth woodworking programs, and opens it up to the general public. Participants work through a series of structured projects designed to build confidence, tool knowledge, safety habits, measuring skills, project planning, and overall woodworking ability.
This is a great fit if you are newer to woodworking, want more practice with tools before using Open Shop independently, or want a flexible way to build your skills over time.
Class Schedule: Saturdays, 10:00 AM–12:30 PM
Upcoming Sessions:

November 7thHow WWW Works:
Each session is 2.5 hours long. Participants work through the curriculum at their own pace with volunteer instructors available for support, demonstrations, questions, and guidance.This is not a one-day “make and take” class where everyone completes the same project at the same time. Instead, Shop Class is designed so you can move through the curriculum project by project.
You can attend as many sessions as you would like. If you miss a week, that is okay. When you come back, you will pick up where you left off.
