Introduction to Woodworking
About This Event
Scandinavian-Style Designer Lamp WorkshopCraft your own Scandinavian-style designer lamp and take home a beautiful, functional piece made by your own hands under the guidance of a woodworking master. This hands-on workshop introduces participants to the fundamentals of woodworking through a focused, practical project that combines clean design, careful craftsmanship and everyday functionality.Build with confidence and competence from the very beginning. Participants will learn the proper use and maintenance of basic hand tools, developing accuracy, control and an understanding of how each tool functions within the broader making process. Through carefully guided exercises, they will practise essential skills such as measurement, marking out, cutting and assembly, applying these techniques directly to the making of their own lamp.The workshop also explores traditional planing methods, the controlled use of chisels and the principles of hand-cut joinery. Participants will gain an understanding of how strong, precise joints are formed without relying on power tools, while developing a deeper appreciation for material, process and hand-crafted design. By the end of the workshop, each participant will leave with a completed Scandinavian-style designer lamp and a stronger foundation in woodworking practice.
