CLASS DESCRIPTION

Learn how to use the essential tools we think should be in everyone’s toolbox. Whether you rent or own a home, these tools will help you do small repairs and give you skills to build on for more extensive projects. This is a great introduction for someone with no experience using tools and it’s also helpful for someone who is not sure if they’re using tools correctly.

Topics covered:

  • More about measuring tapes than you ever knew was possible

  • The ins and outs of power drills

  • Driving home better hammering techniques

  • Grabbing, holding, and securing with pliers and clamps

  • Choosing the right fastener

  • How to hang things in drywall and how to patch up small holes

This is a skills-based class where you will learn how to use tools but you will not make a project to take home.

Class Schedule: Class will run for 2.5 hours and no breaks are planned
