November 18 – Intro to Tools Workshop

Find yourself with a project to do and no place to start? Unfamiliar with the Vancouver Tool Library inventory and the functions of the tools? See the principles of physics at work in our Intro to Tools Workshop (and never question the real world applicability of high school classes again).

After this workshop, participants will leave with the confidence to name and use basic tools necessary for everyday projects. Our goal is for you to feel comfortable working with a variety of different tools in your own home. Safety around introductory power tools will be discussed and your new skills will be put to work through lots of practice!

When: Sunday, November 18th, 2012, from 11:00am-2:00pm

Where: The Tool Library, 3448 Commercial Street

Cost: $15 for VTL Members | $20 for Non-Members

What to Bring: All materials will be provided. The workshop will take place outside so wear comfortable, tighter-fitting clothing that is weather appropriate. Avoid dangly accessories for safety reasons.
