Those who have taken Coopering - 445 can build on their techniques and skills. Build a beautiful and useful addition to your kitchen collection. Prerequisite: Coopering - 445 or call for exceptions. Product: butterchurn.
"Chuck Andrews is an excellent instructor. His expertise and ability to teach make the class very beneficial. All aspects of the class were addressed thoroughly, and all of my questions were answered. Peter's insight on the historical aspects of coopering was much appreciated. The facilities are great. The woodshop is fully outfitted with a good set of hand tools and work benches. The tools provided are sharp and a pleasure to use. The class schedule was a challenge without being too much. I will be back for more classes!" -student, 2009
