Make a cutting board

Reviews: Average review: 5 Number of reviews: (22) Level: Beginner Category: ,

How do you go from a piece of raw wood to a beautiful finished object? How do you glue raw wood and then cut it to create the desired shape?

You will discover exactly that during this fun workshop. You’ll acquire woodworking skills whilst learning how to make a cutting board, that you can personalize to your own tastes (wood type, size, shape …).

You will learn how to glue solid wood, how to plane an object, make holes, round the edges with a router, cut with a band saw, sand perfectly and protect our creation on the long term!

Skills required: none, this workshop is open to all!

The price includes wood (maple, cherry, walnut…), tools and lots of advice.

The teacher was very clear and nice. It was fun to use the tools on our own but with support. It was good to be able to choose our own wood and make our own design. I’m proud of the board!

Premier atelier aux Affûtés pour moi. Quelle belle découverte ! Apprendre à utiliser tant de machines différentes, tout en exerçant sa créativité, voilà de quoi passer un moment très agréable ! Merci à Raymond pour ses explications très claires, sa pédagogie et sa patience. Je reviendrai avec plaisir !

Bon encadrement de la part de l’affûteur. Il donnait de bonnes explications et nous laissait une bonne autonomie tout au long de l’activité.

J’ai aimé qu’on prenne le temps de discuter des outils, des techniques et des essences de bois et qu’on nous laisse ensuite faire notre planche à notre rythme. Raymond a été très intéressant et il répondait très bien a toutes nos questions!
