Cutting Board Workshop
Join Dykes With Drills at The Workshop NOLA!
This holiday season, learn some basic woodworking skills while making a beautiful cutting board of mixed hardwoods for yourself or someone you love.
In this workshop, participants will choose from a selection of pre-glued boards and learn the safety and use of the drill press, router table, bandsaw, and sanders to get their boards shaped and smoothed to perfection. Once the tools are down participants are welcome to pop open a beverage while they apply oil to their cutting boards to protect it for years to come. All materials are included in the cost of the class. Cutting boards are 10” x 12”. This class is open to all! No woodworking experience required.

Your safety is our highest priority, so we have put safety protocols in place for all of our in-person workshops to keep everyone safe. Those protocols are:
All instructors, assistants, and participants will be required to show proof of vaccinations and wear masks while attending workshops. We do not have enough masks to provide to everyone, so you will be required to provide your own mask.
Everyone should follow recommended safety precautions, such as coughing into your elbow and refraining from touching their face.
All of the tools, equipment, door handles, cabinet and drawer handles, etc. that are touched will be disinfected both before and after the workshop.
