Do you have a woodworking project to complete, but lack the tools or equipment you need? Would you like guidance or practice with specific woodworking tools?
Join us for our Open Studio: Woodworking! The Library’s woodworking equipment will be available for your use in our South Parking Lot, by the shed. Please bring your own materials for your projects, as limited scrap material is available at the Studio. Our Creative Studios staff are available during Open Studios to help bring your ideas to life, and to support you in learning to use the equipment. Reach out to maker@mfplibrary.org or stop by with any questions.
Registration is required. Please provide a brief description of your project when registering, so that our Woodworking technician can plan accordingly. Please cancel if you are unable to attend, so waitlisted patrons may have the opportunity to participate.
Woodworking projects will be completed outside and may be subject to weather cancellations. Please dress accordingly and wear closed-toe shoes. Safety glasses, gloves, and ear protection will be provided.
Available equipment may include:
Angle grinder; brad nailer; table saw; circular saw; jigsaw; miter saw; band saw; planer; belt sander; biscuit joiner; router; drill press; and various hand tools
Please note that Creative Studios is a shared creative environment. There may be several patrons needing assistance during Open Studios, and we appreciate your patience as we strive to support everyone. Some projects may also take extra time or more than one visit to complete.
Open Studios programs are designed for adults 18+. A valid Library of Things library card is required to attend Open Studios programs; please include your LoT library card number when you register so that we can confirm your registration.
