Common Questions
Do I need my own tools?
No. I bring everything needed to get started. As you progress, I can help you decide which tools are worth buying for your own collection.
What if I've never done woodworking before?
That's exactly why I'm here. No experience is required — just a project you want to complete and a willingness to learn.
How long does a typical project take?
It depends on the project. A simple shelf might take 3–4 hours. A deck or built-in cabinet could take multiple sessions. We'll map it out together during your free consultation.
How far do you travel?
I serve the Hudson Valley area. Beyond 30 miles from Highland NY, a $0.50/mile fuel surcharge applies. Reach out and I'll let you know if I can make it to you.
Can I pay per session or do I need to commit upfront?
You pay per session at the conclusion of each lesson — no packages, no commitments. Book one session and see how it goes.
