BADGE – Woodshop & Woodworking

Get a broad understanding of navigating a well-equipped wood shop while learning the safety basics through practice. In this course, makers will begin with un-milled lumber and process it through various wood shop machines to get hands-on experience with multiple tools in the shop, resulting in a mini hat rack to take home with them!

What you’ll learn:

• Sawing lumber to length
• Face joining to create reference faces
• Planing to a specific thickness using reference face and proper wood orientation
• Tablesaw instruction for ripping and crosscutting material
• Drill press instruction
• Band saw detailing
• Router table detailing
• Disc & belt sander use, handheld random orbital sander

Please Note:
Workshop attendees will need to be properly outfitted to attend this course. This includes: closed-toed shoes, long pants preferred, and a way to secure long hair.

Safety equipment, including protective glasses and hearing protection, are provided by MAKE Santa Fe but bring yours if you have them.  

Students must be at least 16 years of age.  Minors must have parental permission and a signed waiver (ask us).
