What: Introduction to Woodshop workshop // two sessions

When: 31st of July // from 6 - 9 pm & 1st of August // 11 am - 6 pm

Got a cool woodworking project that you want to start? Perhaps you want to join in with our woodworking evenings? Well you'll need access to professional tools, and you should know how to use them!

In this two-day workshop for rookies, Lluis will give you a basic introduction into the machines and tools in the betahaus woodshop. You will learn the following:

• Planning: How to approach a project with a quick sketch
• Measuring: How to measure the right way, calculating material thickness and offcut
• Tools: You'll learn how to properly and securely use the table saw, miter saw, the drill press, sander and diverse hand tools

But it won't just be learning and getting to know the machines, during the whole time you will be building your own piece of cool furniture to be used as a Laptop desk or just a beautiful wooden bed tray.

Through a shared, basic take-home project you will acquire enough skills to start working on simple projects afterwards.

WORKSHOP HOLDERS

Lluis Mateu, a woodworking enthusiast who has more than 25 years of experience. He has built everything from wooden houses, over furniture to sets for theatre and cinema productions. He hasn't got bored of it and loves to pass on the excitement as well as all the tricks he's learned throughout the years.

"Today many people spend most of their time in front of a computer screen, it is a great tool indeed, but slowly we are losing the capacity of making things with our hands.

With all the years I have been working with wood, I still find satisfying to make a new piece, seeing it taking shape, feeling the quality of the material, see its color coming out after waxing/oiling it, I love it!

I would like to pass on this passion for working with wood and experiencing the satisfaction of building something with your hands."
