Learning carpentry skills

Does anyone know of any casual carpentry classes after work or on the weekends. Please share links if you have them. I'm located in Caulfield, Melbourne Vic. Thanks a bunch :smile:

Re: Learning carpentry skills

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Crystalbeth. It's great to have you join us and see you make your first post in the community.

 

Have you tried doing a google search to see if anything is available? That might be a starting point. Alternatively, I'm sure our helpful members will let you know if they are aware of any.

 

You'll find we all a very encouraging community, and I trust our members will be more than happy to suggest some projects that you might like to attempt. I'd also recommend you take a look through our How To section as we have many easy to follow step-by-step articles labelled with their level of difficulty. Another great source of information is Essential hand tools for D.I.Y. beginners by @Peggers.

 

Please let us know if there is a project you would like to tackle and I'm sure we can assist.

Re: Learning carpentry skills

Thanks Mitchell, is Bunnings still running Saturday workshops? Where can I find out about these?

Re: Learning carpentry skills

@Crystalbeth

 

Currently, due to restrictions, we are not able to run D.I.Y. Workshops within our stores. We look forward to providing this service again as soon as possible.

 

Once we resume the Workshops, you'll be able to view them on the Bunnings website or by contacting your nearest store for details.

Kind of a Big Deal

Re: Learning carpentry skills

Hello @Crystalbeth 

 

If you wish to dip your toe in an easy project with just a saw, drill, tape measure and pencil I suggest this one for a quick turn around project. It can be done on a weekend! https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/Whole-of-House/Weekend-project-stools-that-double-as-flower-... Good luck and stay safe!
