This qualification course is designed for experienced woodworkers who wish to purchase a use pass or take our Continuing Woodworking or Furniture Building class without first taking our Beginning Woodworking class. In order to be authorized to use our woodshop, students must demonstrate proficiency on the major tools in the woodshop during this qualification course. Major tools include the table saw, band saw, radial arm saw, miter saw, drum/disc sanders, jointer, and planer. Without significant experience on these tools, you must first take a beginning woodworking class.

Prerequisites: Significant experience and proficiency with the table saw, band saw, planer, jointer, radial arm saw and miter saw. There will not be a refund in the event that the student does not pass the qualification.
