Woods 1 & 2

Woodworking I is a project oriented course that teaches students woodworking techniques, processes, and procedures with an emphasis on tool and equipment safety. Units of instruction include shop and tool safety, equipment set-up, joint construction, cutting, routing, project assembly, and surface preparation and finishing. Typical class projects include the building of a shelf, a nightstand, a lamp, a CD cabinet, a clock and a stepstool.

Woodworking II furthers the student’s knowledge and experiences in woodworking technology through the selection, planning, and construction of advanced cabinet and furniture projects typically ranging from intricate jewelry boxes and clocks to night tables, coffee tables, and desktop organizers. Instruction will focus on project planning, procedures and cost estimating, advanced cutting, shaping and routing, joint construction and assembly, and finishing techniques. Students will also learn about special machine set-ups and operations as well as equipment maintenance.
