When you finish this course, you will have a solid understanding of lubrication, fluids, tires, vehicle maintenance, and how systems work. There are safety modules that must be completed online before the first class. The instructor will provide a website and details. This is not a bring-your-own-vehicle repair class. Applied learning will occur in the shop on a demo vehicle. Students must bring safety glasses and reinforced toe footwear.

In this fun woodworking class, students construct a traditional 14”L x 10”H x 11”W six-board chest out of a single board. You learn to use hand tools, power tools, and templates to make rip, cross, and curve cuts. For example, a Japanese saw, rasp, coping saw, and random orbital sander are used. Learn to plan, assemble, and glue up the components of the chest, and then prepare your chest for finishing with hand and power sanding. Take it home and paint, stain, decoupage or wood burn to create a one of a kind gift that will last for years to come. A material fee of $80 can be paid to the instructor at the start of class.
