Mar. 7-8 · Basic Carpentry Skills 101

Hammerstone Ithaca • 720 West Green Street IthacaNY  14850 Organized by Hammerstone: Carpentry for Women, LLC

About this event

Basic Carpentry Skills 101 introduces students to basic carpentry concepts of layout, cutting, and fastening, while building a pair of sawhorses that students will take home after the class. The skills learned in this course form a foundation for both rough carpentry and more detailed finish work. After this course, students will be able to safely use a range of hand and power tools and will understand the fundamentals of construction. This course can be taken as a stand-alone course, or as a precursor to any of the other longer project-based courses. Students will build a pair of sturdy sawhorses that are theirs to take home after the workshop. These horses are constructed from 2x material and plywood, and serve as a good introduction to cross-cutting, ripping, cutting angles, and using plywood. Students under 18 may attend with parental permission.
