• Skills that transfer to countless other woodworking projects

Experience level:

Absolute beginners welcome! Our expert guides break down every step into manageable parts, ensuring everyone succeeds regardless of prior experience.

All tools and materials provided, including premium maple selected for its durability and beauty. Just bring yourself, closed-toe shoes, and a willingness to try something new.
