Craft a Side Table (Introduction to Woodworking and Furniture Making)
Great entry level workshop with a nice variety of tool instruction! I was admittedly looking for something bigger (the name was a little misleading to me) but the skills can be applied elsewhere. Friendly instructors and cool vibe! -
Craft a Side Table (Introduction to Woodworking and Furniture Making)
I took the class with three others, so not a large class which made it easier to do the build in a relaxed fashion. Will, the instructor, was great at walking us through the build and providing information about the various tools, and also how additional safety guards had been installed to make it safer for those new at woodworking. We got to watch a bit of Japanese woodworking and share a beer as well! -
Craft a Side Table (Introduction to Woodworking and Furniture Making)
Really cool hobby class. Great intro into woodworking basics. We learned how to do a stool and used a miter saw and a router in class, and put together a table using joinery (I think that's the proper term). Instructor was awesome - very personable and even stayed late when we needed more time. Close to the subway, really neat little space and it was a great way to spend a Friday night. -

The instructor was very knowledgeable and gave us step by step instructions. She also modeled how to handle the wood pieces and power tools.

Great class to learn basics on how to use tools and learn about woodworking. The instructor explained things really well and made the class a lot of fun! The table was smaller than I expected but then it took us the full 4 hours to make it. Pizza and wine were good too :) Really fun date and a chance to make something with your partner! -
Craft a Side Table (Introduction to Woodworking and Furniture Making)
The instructors, Michelle and Mossimo, were great—friendly, answered questions, and helpful. Fun class although the table was so small. Could it have been a little bigger? Like 12 by 12? And I understand it’s a beginners course and I don’t know much about woodworking, but I was surprised that our table was held together by glue, not nails…. Are there multi week courses so we can learn more advanced information & make other items? -

It was unbelievable, i love it, wish there was a part 2 -
Craft a Side Table (Introduction to Woodworking and Furniture Making)
It was a great class in a sense that it was quite easy. The studio had prepared the design of the stool we were building as well as the sequence of construction with every tool having a custom jig that allowed for perfect cuts and tight fits. It ended up just being three students including myself which meant we could ask many questions without holding up the class. -
Craft a Side Table (Introduction to Woodworking and Furniture Making)
This class was delightful! The instructors were delightful, the other participants were delightful, and the project was delightful. I am certainly going to return in the future. -
Craft a Side Table (Introduction to Woodworking and Furniture Making)
The make a side table class was amazing with two truly fun, patient instructors that'd help you with your table and any problems you came across. You get to sand its edges how you want, though you won't paint it after it's made. It was neat to see what people made and they offered beer after the class. It is a lot of work in those 4 hours: we used 3 different types of (automatic) saws so it gave you a good taste of what a multi-week woodworking class would be like. Great place and can't wait to go back for more classes. -
Craft a Side Table (Introduction to Woodworking and Furniture Making)
This was an awesome class. It's amazing what I learned to do in four hours. Take 3 pieces of wood and transform them into a table, a very nice, sturdy, not wobbly table. The instructor was very experienced and answered all questions and helped us out whenever need- all with a ton of patience, encouragement , and enthusiasm. I look forward to taking another course at Craftman Avenue. The small class size was great the environment was comfy, had all the tools needed- measuring tools, clamps, etc.. it's a wonderful space, wonderful people. Well worth it in every respect -

I had a great time and the class felt safe despite latest covid spreads.

Craft a Side Table (Introduction to Woodworking and Furniture Making)
I really enjoyed the class. Our instructor, Chris was a friendly and chill guy. He kept everything very straight forward and elaborated when we seemed unsure. Though there was a timeframe I never felt rushed and enjoyed the fact that we could all work at our own pace. Chris made sure we understood the dangers/ safety measures before we used each equipment. He gave the freedom for us to feel like we could do/ use each tool on our own but would check in on us from time to time. Thank you for a great class! -
