Make It Take It: Bench CHICAGO

Brag to your friends Nick Offerman has nothing on you. In this workshop you will construct your own bench from reclaimed wood. The instructor will guide you through all things safety related so you can confidently build your bench and develop woodworking skills. You will make measurements, cuts, and assemble a work of art your behind will surely enjoy. No prior experience is necessary and equipment is provided.

Note: If the ticket type you want is not available, we may be able to accommodate! Email us at workshops@rebuildingexchange.org to ask.

CAUTION: The wood shop can get hot during the summer months so please make sure to wear the proper attire, bring a water bottle, and take breaks as needed. You also have access to our air conditioned offices to cool off.
