Classroom Tips & Tricks
1. Read the instructions carefully and plan out your project before you begin. This will help you to be more efficient with your time and materials.
2. Start with simple projects first, such as making a birdhouse or other small items, before attempting a more complicated project. This will give you the experience and confidence needed for tackling larger pieces down the line.
3. Be patient! Woodworking is an art form that takes time to learn and practice. Taking short cuts can lead to errors in measurements and sloppy finishes that can ruin your project.
4. When dealing with power tools (such as saws and drills), always wear protective gear and read any instructions/warnings provided to prevent injury.
5. Make sure you understand the terminology of woodworking – familiarize yourself with terms such as “angstrom” or “mitered joint” so you can have productive conversations when discussing options for a project or seeking advice from Kevin or your classmates about working with a specific material.
6. Keep track of projects that have worked well for you in the past, and pay attention to techniques used by others in the class – this will help you avoid repeating mistakes and save valuable time during future projects!
7. Investing in good quality tools, supplies, and materials is essential when it comes to woodworking – they not only make all the difference in how your piece looks, but also helps ensure that it lasts!
8. Most important – Have fun! Enjoy learning this skill and don’t forget to take pride in seeing all of your hard work paid off when finishing up a beautiful piece of craftsmanship!
