Description

Wood shop Qualification class – Safety and Operation

Maximum 3 participants per class.

Disclaimer: This is not a class in technique, it is to learn how to use the Woodshop Equipment here safely and how the woodshop is run here at The Forge. It is appropriate for someone wanting to qualify to become a Forge member, or for someone wanting to learn to use their own woodshop equipment.

Open to public – this class teaches you how to use standard wood shop equipment safely. It is not an official or professional certification. (Equipment: Table saw, miter saw, bandsaw, panel saw, jointer, planer, drill press)

Please plan on spending about 3.5+ hours during the first day of the qualification process.  You will then come back (list specific date/time here, *you must attend the practicum if your intention is to join the Forge, must join within 6 weeks of class) and do the practicum part of the qualification.  This is where you will show that you are proficient in using the equipment without supervision. 

Before arriving to class, please watch the Wood Area Orientation Slideshow on our website here.   In addition, please review the machine manuals and videos you must review here on our website.  There are also some quizzes you will complete after your qualification hands on portion.  Do not do the quizzes before the class. 

The Forge has a 7-day advance notification Cancellation/Refund Policy: You can read our cancellation policy here.
