Feeling rusty on equipment used in our woodshop? Then this is for you! This class is for folks who have already taken our woodshop badge but want a refresher course that goes over all the equipment operation and safety again to have you feeling more confident in the shop. Bring your questions!
Personalized refresher based on participants covers:
