My Project

As we all know woodworking can be expensive, and sometimes little things can make a huge difference in the quality of the projects. Unfortunately the wear and tear of hundreds of woodworking students have finally taken their toll on our hand sanders. I'm looking two replace the two sanders that have finally succumb to the hundreds of hours of use that our beginner level woodworkers have put them through.

Our students are hard working and motivated in the wood shop and I'm looking to keep them progressing forward.

With your support our students will be able to open up new possibilities in their learning experience.
