This introduction to the world of industrial design through woodworking will enable youth new to woodworking to develop modern woodworking skills safely in our community woodshop under the instruction of experienced woodworking instructors. 

Students will get hands-on experience using a mini-lathe to turn wood  into finished projects like a wooden pen or magic wand,  an electric planer in the finishing of projects like a laminated cutting board or chess game board, and a bandsaw and drill press to complete projects like an analog clock or a wooden toolbox. Our junior woodworkers are not limited to just these few sample projects, only by their imagination and the tools and time on hand. 

In the process of building multiple projects, our junior woodworkers will learn modern wood preparation including measuring, joinery, planning, sanding, routing, lathing, cutting, gluing, and finishing techniques in this action-packed camp. Completion of this beginning woodworking will allow our junior woodworkers to continue onto our advanced woodworking camps that will challenge them to apply their skills to more complex wood projects. 

Safety is our top priority, thus closed-toed/heeled shoes are required, as well as form-fitting cloths and the removal of all jewelry. Safety glasses are required in the woodshop. Maker Nexus can provide safety glasses that are sanitized after each use, however, we recommend each student bring their own pair.

During this camp, students will learn the concepts and skills needed to work with glass as a medium by engaging in a number of glass crafts. This program at Maker Nexus teaches students the basics of working with stained glass, a gorgeous historical medium, as well how to fuse and slump glass in a kiln, and melt glass using a gas torch to create beads and marbles. Students will learn how to safely handle soldering irons and solder, copper tape, and flux, and how to safely cold cut and solder glass. They will apply these skills to designing and creating their very own stained glass window, ornament, and fully functional box, complete with a hinged lid. Besides cold glasswork, students will also learn the basics of hot glasswork, learning how to safely use a blowtorch and pliers to create marbles, paperweights, and animal figurines. By the end of the camp, campers will have the knowledge and skills to create art, jewelry, and small dishes out of glass.
