October 8 @ 6:00 PM 9:00 PM

The router is an amazingly flexible tool that can be a little scary with its exposed “sharp spinnie thing.” We will demonstrate how to safely use handheld and table mounted routers for joinery, shaping edges, flattening boards, and more using several commercial and off-the-shelf jigs.

This discussion-and-demonstration class includes hands-on time with the handheld router and router table. It pairs well with the cutting board with juice groove or the shaped charcuterie board classes, or as a private workshop focused on a personal project.

Note: This class has a minimum age of 15.
