Service Learning Project: Workbenches for the Blacksmith Shed
Course Overview
Make your mark on the historical development of the new North House Folk School blacksmith shop by working alongside master carpenter and instructor Randy Schnobrich, to build and assemble new wooden work benches. Handcrafted from local wood, the new blacksmith shop workbenches will be built with one purpose in mind – to be an inspiring and durable workplace for a variety of traditional woodworking projects. No previous woodworking experience is required. Your participation and tuition in this service learning project includes:
* how to assess a woodworking space and design a suitable workbench to meet those demands
* hands-on experience ripping, cutting, measuring and assembling a woodwork bench
* lunch served daily on the North House campus for all service learning participants
