Whether you are new to woodworking or deciding to try your hand at something new like veneering or bending wood, there’s a member that can help you out. The Guild will seek to pair a new woodworker with a more experienced member to act as a mentor. Also, a lot of knowledge is shared between members at meetings, on the phone, via email or our online group South Florida Woodworking Guild in Facebook.
At each meeting members who wish can present their work, discuss techniques used, problems encountered, new techniques tried, ask for feedback or guidance. It is a unique forum that will inspire your work and enhance your woodworking knowledge and skills
As a member, you can have your work professionally photographed and a portfolio of your work placed in our online galleries where you can show case your work for to the world to see!
