Make It Together
One mentor. Three pairs of hands. Craft and community.
“Make It Together” is an intimate woodworking experience from Woodworking for Warriors. Instead of a 6- or 12-person class—where the instructor’s attention may be stretched and machines may be in short supply—this format pairs one seasoned woodworker with two fellow members. Together, they build side by side, working on a project with time and space for guidance, discovery, and learning by doing.
Each participant creates a version of the same piece, assisting one another and growing in the process. It’s about sharing experience and building confidence, skills, and connection. With three people at the bench, craft becomes community.
