3-Hour Workshop
Date:
 Thursday, October 30, 2025
Time: 
6pm-9pm
Description: 
This designed-for-beginners course will explore the basics of woodworking in a judgement-free environment! Using the core machines of the wood studio, students will learn the lumber milling process—turning a rough-sawn board into dimensional lumber—which is the launching pad for nearly every wood project. Folks will build familiarity with the studio space, tools, and safety considerations and will walk away with several sample pieces demonstrating knowledge and confidence in the woodshop. This is a great prerequisite before taking one of our other project-based workshops.
Tuition: 
$65 + $25 materials fee
Materials: 
All materials will be provided.
Location:
 Contemporary Craft Timmons Studios (5688 Butler St., Pittsburgh, PA 15201)

Refund Policy: 
Student refund requests must be made at least three business days before a class begins. There will be a $25 cancellation fee. No refunds will be given without three-business days notice. Processing of refunds takes approximately three weeks.

About the Artist
David’s love for woodcrafting started as a child when he served as a carving and painting artist’s apprentice to his grandfather in the upstate Finger lakes region of New York. He studied stagecraft, Theatre, and construction at Point Park University's Conservatory of Performing Arts, trained at the KML Carpenters school through the Carpentry Union, and Woodworking fundamentals through the Backchannel School of woodworking; all studied here in Pittsburgh. Since 2021, he has been the owner of the small Pittsburgh based wood working business, Uncommon Craftsmen; and when he’s not at work you can find him under a pile of sawdust, clay, paints, or design drafts problem solving his way through his old Observatory Hill fixer-upper. David is also an avid boardgame enthusiast, a songwriter, and the proud father of two kiddos!
