About this Workshop

Are you ready to level up your woodworking game, save time, and get razor-sharp consistency every single time you step into the shop? Jigs and fixtures are a woodworker’s secret weapon for boosting efficiency and keeping things safe. Students will join Tyler for a fun, hands-on week exploring the incredible versatility of these commonly used fixtures. Together, Tyler and the students will demystify how these tools work, and he will help them build an arsenal of fixtures that will transform the way they use their machinery. During this action-packed week, students will roll up their sleeves and craft their own custom crosscut sled, tenoning jig, and L-fence for their table saw, plus circle-cutting jigs, pattern-cutting jigs, and a V-block for their bandsaw. But they aren’t stopping there! They will also dive into advanced topics like material selection, creative workpiece holding, single-use patterns, vacuum-assisted jigs, and even how to fuse modern 3D printing with traditional jig making. Students will leave this class with a wealth of new skills, a boost of shop confidence, and a truckload of custom fixtures and accessories tailored exactly to their tools.
