Questions & Answers

Are there any risks involved with your woodworking workshops?

Drills, hammers, mallets, nails, sand paper, paint and oil based stains are used during a workshop, so precautions need to be taken.  If you have a condition that will increase your likeliness of experiencing injuries or breathing issues, please ask us ahead of time if this is right for you. We also recommend you wear clothing that is not special to you. Stain, paint, saw dust and wax are always being passed around in a workshop environment, so choose wisely in your clothing selection!!

Do you use environmentally safe products?

Masks are required by staff and customers. While food and beverages are still allowed your mask has to stay on between sips etc. Employees get your paint and stain for you now instead of getting it yourself.
