CLASS DESCRIPTION
Have you ever wondered what essential tools are useful around the house, or maybe you've been curious about what to do with some of the tools you already own? This is the class for you!
Join us for a hands-on and skill-building tour around a toolbox. You'll get a chance to try out some tools like drills and drivers, practice better hammering techniques, learn how to use tools like levels and clamps, and discover more about measuring tapes than you ever knew was possible. Great for both homeowners and renters!
This is a skills-based class where you will learn how to use tools but you will not make a project to take home.
Topics covered:
Measuring and marking, including secrets of measuring tapes and speed squares
Grabbing, holding, and securing material with pliers and clamps
Using screwdrivers effectively, and when to use screws
Using hammers effectively, and when to use nails
How to cut material safely using hand saws and utility knives
Much more!
Cost: $60
