The Masters Program - Marc Adams School of Woodworking
Michael Fortune once told me that the only way to better yourself is to take clases and study from those who are experts at what they do. I agree! It's possible to learn more in one week from a "Master" woodworker than you could learn in years by your own experience. MASW has such a strong teacher base, along with so many driven students, that it only makes sense to incorporate some type of curriculum that can direct students toward a well-rounded woodworking experience.
