This workshop introduces you to drilling, cutting with a circular saw, and cutting with a jigsaw. Over the course of six hours, you’ll practice how to work with these different tools and then apply what you learned to a small, square planter you can use indoors or outdoors. At the end of the day, everyone will take home their own planter. The workshop includes snacks and drinks throughout the day.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll learn…
