Description

This is a short Sunday afternoon (hopefully outdoor) workshop for the absolute DIY beginner.

You will learn how to use a handsaw, how to make a straight cut, how to measure and plan your project, how to choose the right timber, how to use a power drill, how to use an impact driver (and the difference between the two), how to use different drill bits, how to choose the right screws, how to countersink holes and how to plug holes and how to sand down raw wood using hand vs. electric sander.

And finally, how to have a cup of tea and a biscuit on your finished garden bench. Although you won't need my help for this bit. :)

We will only be building one bench, as the railway sleepers we will be using to build it are quite expensive (around 20 GBP) and I want to keep my workshops afforable. You will definitely acquire all the (transferable) skills and there will be plenty of hands on activity. The news is, one of the particpants will get to take home the bench we built. We will either do a prize draw at the end or I will do a DIY quiz with you to determine who gets to take the bench home.
