started taking classes at the local guild. this is my first real piece that isn't just a dimensioned pine board or something.

pretty happy with it and excited to learn more

What's a local guild for woodworking?

[–] peregrin5@piefed.social 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

it's basically a statewide organization of woodworkers and it hosts several community woodshops in our state with classes, open shop hours, events, etc.

That's sweet, what state is that?

[–] peregrin5@piefed.social 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oregon for me. I'm sure other states have something similar though

I should look, maybe get lucky and Oklahoma has one.
