Woodwork workshop
Create, craft and construct – we've got all the tools you need.
In the Woodwork Workshop you can process both natural timbers and sheet composite boards for the manufacture of furniture, display units, paint surfaces, moulds and any other wood-based items.
We have many different woodworking machines, with portable power tools and hand tools to complete any sort of timber processing needed.
There's also a great range of tools that enable you to prepare natural timbers, carry out furniture and stretcher building, turn wood and use other techniques to produce finished items.
We stock some sections of timber and the usual sheet material. As a student, you can bring your own materials into the workshop for processing. We also try to supply as much recycled material as possible for you to use.
We have a range of machinery to carry out woodworking tasks:
- Vertical panel saw
- Surface thicknesser
- Mitre guillotine
- Hollow chisel mortiser
- Wood lathe
- Other tools such as bandsaws, mitre saws, table saws, pillar drills, router tables, bobbin sanders, disk sanders, and a linisher.
Discover something new
Almost all of our workshops are open for all students to use, after appropriate tuition and health and safety introductions. It doesn't matter what course you're studying – we encourage you to break boundaries and explore new disciplines.
