| “I am a fourth generation woodworker. I Took this class because it was a prerequisite to the cabinet making class. I never expected to pick up much in this class. Boy, was I wrong. Every class session taught me things that I did not know before.” |
| “I found out about this program from an article in the newspaper. Right away, I knew it was perfect for me. I thought there would be a good amount of kids in the class that were my age because I knew many people that were serious about it in high school. I was surprised to find out that I was the youngest kid in the class. I didn’t feel out of place at all though.” |
| “The real plus of this class is the people I have met – both in class and those volunteers hopping about. What a great crew. I have enjoyed helping my fellow students and amazed that these “kids” have turned out great projects with little or no experience.” |
| “Well the day finally came, the first day of class. I soon realized how little I knew. I told my friends, that I started the class with, how embarrassed I was to even think I could have started in the 105 class. Chris was so right. Start with the 100 class and work your way up.” |
| “I have been interested in woodworking for 30 years, but have taken no formal classes. All my efforts have been self-taught and have, by and large, produced acceptable results. I was at first somewhat disappointed that I was required to take the introductory course – sort of a “been there-done that” feeling. However, I must say that this intro course has been very worthwhile. I’ve definitely learned a lot and have enjoyed the clock project.” |
| “I came to this class with not even the slightest wood working skills or knowledge. Now I feel like I can talk the talk and sort of make something that resembles what I had set out to make. I think the best part of the class was meeting some very nice people and the fact that with all the varied woodworking levels I felt comfortable asking many of them for help. My husband’s response to all this was that he was not losing his spot in the garage. We will see about that!” |
| “I have learned so much in only 16 classes (sessions). The instructor was easygoing, intelligent, humorous and interesting. The classmates were fun and very helpful. What a great mix of people, from gray-haired retirees to fair-hair teenagers. Thanks for the fun and knowledge. See you in CFT 105.” |

Battle it out to see who is champ.
But everyone knows
That experience shows
The winner is always the clamp.”
