SUMMARY:Build a Cajón
DESCRIPTION:Build a cajón – a simple wooden instrument with the versatility of a drum kit! Originally from South America\, particularly Perú\, and derived from African wooden drums\, the cajón has found its way into flamenco\, rumba\, folk\, blues\, jazz\, and other musical traditions. It is a fairly simple design and easily portable.  \n\n\n\nCajóns can be as simple as a box with a thin “tapa” face for striking\, or can be customized with snares or strings\, adjustable sound holes\, feet\, pedals or levers\, decor\, and more.  \n\n\n\nThis image was originally posted to Flickr by Dave Catchpole at https://www.flickr.com/photos/52957117@N04/5990865523. cc-by-2.0 via wikimedia.org\n\n\n\nClass attendees will cut the basic parts\, assemble the box\, and attach a snare. Attendees should have taken a Mill Forge intro woodworking class or be certified on woodworking equipment. Students with some prior woodworking experience may contact info@millforge.org for other options. \n\n\n\nThis project can take longer than the allotted time\, especially if customizing the design\, applying a finish\, or for less experienced carpenters. If students would like to return to complete the box to their liking after the 4 hour class\, a day pass can be added to the class at a discounted price ($25) when signing up or on the same day as the course. \n\n\n\nA cajón in progress

SUMMARY:Pitch Us A Class!
DESCRIPTION:More classes are being added\, but if you are an expert\, a dedicated hobbyist\, a potential student\, or someone with niche experience or training\, we’d love to hear your ideas for a course! \n\n\n\nMill Forge pays our instructors\, usually $60 per hour (assuming at least 3 students). \n\n\n\nHow to pitch: Put together a brief description of the class; some photos\, drawings\, or designs for projects students would be creating or learning to make; a rough materials list\, and an estimate of how many course hours and students would make a good class. It doesn’t have to be anything elaborate – just enough to get the idea.  \n\n\n\nEmail us at info@millforge.org or use the contact form to send your idea. We’ll get back to you with questions\, and get your course on the calendar if it’s a good fit!
