Intro to Wood Design and Fabrication: This course will introduce students to general woodworking equipment and skills, and will start with a required project as students become skilled at safely operating machines. These projects may include introductions to CNC routers and Laser technologies. The main project of the course is a more in depth woodworking project that will utilize many of the machines and skills learned.
Advanced Wood Design and Fabrication: This course is a continuation of the intro level. Students should be able to perform at a higher level, and produce higher quality products. It is expected that students work to improve their skills at this level, and challenge themselves with new techniques or higher difficulty projects. The main focus of the course is a self-designed woodworking project. Students have the option to choose their own project, design it following the design and problem solving process, and fabricate it using the machines they have learned about.
