Level I of the Carpentry Workshop is suitable for beginners who have never had contact with carpentry tools and machines. You'll learn the art of transforming wood into useful objects, the work methodology inherent in carpentry, the techniques according to what you're going to build. You'll also learn the function and handling of the vast glossary of hand tools and machines we have in the workshop.

After a theoretical introduction and practical exercises in cutting, fitting, carving and hollowing, you will build an object designed by us. The execution of this object brings together various woodworking techniques and is an ideal exercise for your first contact with this craft. We'll teach you how to interpret and plan the project, measure and mark the wood. And then put into practice the principles of joinery and exercises previously carried out, applied to this specific object.

No previous knowledge is required.
