Who are we?
Who we are
We are a hands-on club, with a large well equipped workshop.
We do not offer formal lessons, but members will help you with different aspects of doing your project.
In turn, one day, you will help others learn. This is how we keep our fees so low.

- Box making
- Carving
- Toy making
- Wood turning
