About this event

Do you have power tools in your garage or storage unit you aren’t sure how to use? Do you need a safety refresher before you start that next project? If so, this workshop is for you.


We’ll cover how to safely operate 6 common power tools used for home improvement projects, including:

Cordless drill & driver

Circular saw

Miter saw

Jigsaw

Brad nailer

Router

You’ll have the opportunity for hands-on practice with each tool to build comfort and confidence with how they sound and feel when using them. We’ll discuss which tools fit various types of projects and how to set them up in your space.
