I’m on the waiting list too, and I know what you mean. I think some people’s expectation are different than what this workshop is designed to do. (There is only one Villagetinker in TV…. ) From my very short introduction to the wood workshop I understood that volunteers introduce you to the machines after a mandatory safety program. People work on their own projects, such as making wooden toys, carved canes for vets etc so personal hobbies. Not home building or cabinet making or furniture designing. Although I don’t know if any one does that. I plan to make picture frames for my oil paintings myself. It does not seem to be a commercial workplace where you would bring something large in to fix.
