    What can I say about Michelle and this class? I had such a wonderful time in this class and plan on taking more with her. Fun and educational, and I made a sweet table. 100% would recommend.

    Taught by Michelle - she's a great teacher and very talented at what she does. I had no real experience with power tools and feel like I learned a ton. Class was very fun and light, but felt kind of intense how much you have to learn to put the project together. Definitely felt it was worth the time and the money for the experience. Felt invigorated after every class, even in the middle of the week, and hey this table's pretty good. Excited to do more - thanks Michelle!

    I thought it was good though since we didn’t set up the machines ourselves (which I assume was partly due to time / partly safety), replicating the project would be difficult. However, this was a good introductory class and the project included a lot of different elements. I think I’ll take another class to feel more comfortable on the machines.
  • Intro to Woodworking

    Finished the class with a hand constructed table! Instructor Kate was very knowledgeable. Despite the small class limit (6), pace was a little slower than would have liked due to having only one machine, waiting for others to finish using.

    The workshop was a phenominal experience! The instructors clearly mapped out the project from the start, demonstrated the appropriate methods of using each machine, explained what to check before beginning work on each process, and maintained a friendly, professional attitude at all times. Limiting the class to 6 students allowed everyone's questions to be answered and provided the perfect balance for working individually and as part of the team. Watching other students use the machinery reinforced the steps we were taught to follow in set up, use, and safety. All materials necessary were provided. I look forward to continuing my education at Makeville Studio through additional classes, booking and booking studio time. I highly recommend this studio and this Workshop.

    I had a time in this great class with the very good instructor, Michelle. I'm definitely looking forward to more classes at Makeville.
