These classes run four sessions, once per week. Woodworking 101, shaping and carving with hand tools, and wood finishing techniques are among the topics this season. Taught by seasoned veterans of the craft. 
These are one-session classes. You walk in with shop clothes on and walk out with a hand-crafted something something. Options include end tables, rustic mirrors, boot jacks, benches and lap tables. All made from reclaimed stuff here at the RX. How cool is that!
