Hi all, I’ve just joined as a member and I’m especially interested in woodwork. While I’m waiting for an induction workshop I was wondering if anyone is working on something (basic or advanced!) and would be happy for me to observe them for a few hours one day? Woodwork is preferable, but honestly I am open to anything creative. Eager to learn and absorb any info I can!

You can come in and look around and observe people, no problem. Most people are very happy to talk about their projects and their challenges. I reckon if you hang around in the space and find the right people to talk to, offer them tea and biscuits and I’m super sure they’ll be happy with having you observe for as long as you need until you get your induction(s) done and lend you a helping hand with your projects when the time comes.

Are you thinking woodwork projects with hand and power tools presumably? Rather than laser cut / CNC / lathe etc ones? Or just anything really?

Do you have specific projects you are thinking of yourself as well?

I’m in Germany at the moment but back end of next week. Anytime I’m in the space I’m happy to show you CNC work or what I’m working on. Just ping me when you see I’m in on the calendar.

Hey Aaron! Yep, hand and power tools primarily but I am open to anything. Right now I’m keen to gain some skills rather than projects BUT I do want to make some wall paneling/moulding (which feels beginner friendly)
