We feel like no one is coming to wood joinery. Do people not know what it is? Do they not want to hook wood together? DOES NO ONE LOVE A POCKET HOLE?!?
We’ve landed on the fact that it might be the name, so we’re having a contest! Give us a new name for our wood joinery class, and if we pick your idea, you get two free tickets to any class you want. Keep them, gift them, whatever you like!
Here are the class details to get your gears turning:
- Tools & Supplies for Basic Building
- Wood Glue and When it's Needed
- Different ways to Join Wood (Butt Joints, Miter Joints, etc.)
- How to Make Pocket Holes
Submit your ideas through our google form. Find it saved in our "Contest" Story Highlights or comment JOINERY and we will DM you the form.

Your drill has settings and lots of fun accessories that can make projects easier! (Which we are all for!) However, knowing how to handle a drill and what all of the pieces do is important before jumping into your projects. Let's cut out any frustration that can come with learning a new tool.
➡️ Take our class 'How to Use a Drill and All of its Bits and Accessories' and learn:
- what all of the dials and settings mean
- how to handle, use, and store them safely,
- which drill to use for what
- basic ones that do a lot and are worth the investment
- what all of the different bits do, and why you need (or don’t need) them
Join us on Tuesday, May 5 from 7-8p CST. This is a one-hour virtual class, you will receive a zoom link after you sign up. 🎟️ Grab your tickets at the link in bio.
