Join us for a hands-on, beginner-friendly woodworking class where you’ll transform rough lumber into a beautifully crafted cheese board!
About this Event

Over two days, you’ll learn foundational woodworking skills, gain confidence with essential tools, and leave with a finished piece you can proudly use or gift.


Day 1: Milling & Cutting

You’ll start with rough hardwood and learn how to bring it into true, workable form.
Participants will:

  • Mill lumber flat using jointers and planers
  • Cut their pieces to size
  • Glue up the boards in a classic cutting-board style pattern

By the end of Day 1, your board will be clamped and curing overnight.


Day 2: Shaping & Finishing

With your glued panel ready, you’ll move on to shaping and refining your cheese board.
Students will:

  • Plane the board flat
  • Use a bandsaw to cut out a rough cheese-board shape
  • Clean up the edges with a router and template
  • Sand the board smooth
  • Apply a food-safe finish for a beautiful, durable final product
