The wood shop

A proper wood shop, not a corner with a jigsaw. Rip and cross-cut on the table saw, true up rough lumber on the planer/jointer, cut curves and resaw on the band saw, and finish with a dedicated sanding and spray area so dust and fumes stay out of everyone else's project.

Everyone starts with a safety induction on the machines they'll use, then the bench is yours. Restore a piece of furniture, build a drone frame, or just learn joinery from scratch — staff are on hand when you're stuck, and make-and-take class nights are a relaxed way to pick up a new skill.
