I teach woodworking classes and maintain tools at Ace Makerspace in Oakland, CA. I also teach woodworking classes at MacBeath Hardwood in Berkeley. I operate a fence business where I work with wood almost daily.

Training

I offer private, one-on-one or group lessons about any major power tools, including:

TablesawBandsawJointerPlaner
BandsawDrill PressRoutersLathe
Track SawCircular/SkillsawOscillating ToolSanders

I can help you using your own tools in your own shop. I’m an experienced woodworking teacher. I teach both experienced woodworkers as well as complete beginners. Kids under 16 need an adult present.

Pricing for up to five people is $100 for the first hour, $80/hour after that. If you would like a class with more that five people please contact me for more information and a price for the event you have in mind.

Tool Service

I offer many kinds of tool maintenance and minor repair services:

  • Tablesaw Alignment
  • Blade changes on most tools
  • Replace electrical plug
  • Bandsaw tuneup
  • Miter saw tuneup

I don’t generally repair broken tools. Repairs are limited – mostly I can perform provide training on maintenance and tuning of your tools.
