I've always loved teaching woodworking. And I've always loved collaborating with other woodworkers to learn from each other and make stuff. This is the first time though that I'm doing both.

Serving people is fun. ☺️

This is no ordinary chaiwala's tray. This one is made from a bunch of teak strips that the local sawmill sells for cheap. The labour involved in putting together the boards for this tray though is massive. Labour far exceeds the material cost. That's something we need to work into the cost.

Mohraan farms has appeared in the physical world.

It took me nearly 2 hours of bobbing and weaving to jigsaw that signboard. And to be honest my arm isn't happy with the vibrations. I on the other hand am pleased as punch. Under my guidance Sachin has made the clothes rod and the curtain holders for the at . We made a space for the chickens to lay eggs and ofcourse a whole load of random support has been give to many activities. Now finally I made something on my own, no help, no guiding, just go go go.

I had a blast. I just pray the BWP ply is strong enough to withstand the rains.

This is a gum boot stand or a solution as per pinterest. created the initial design and made the first version of this stand. 👏👏

I will tell you a lot of cool things about sachin very soon. For now suffice it to say he is a student of mine and he is also my host. (So I must be nice hahaha)🙄

Ok so the design is simple. 4 holes in a solid block of wood. And then 4 stumps of bamboo are jammed in. The bamboo has been trimmed to length and then shaved to the correct thickness to fit tightly into the holes.
😂😂
We've used a HOLESAW and then switched to the SPADE BIT or trishul to get deeper into the block. A CHISEL which I brought along helped trim the bamboo and also round the edges. The bamboo was cut to length using a HACKSAW. And a mallet to hammer the stumps in. Oh and a wooden randa, HANDPLANE, to round of the edges give a little bit of a finish to the piece. Not bad for just 5 instruments. I'm really pushing

What fun we had at the Woodworking with power tools workshop. These images are from a week back. 💃💃👏👏
We hosted some really lovely folks among them was a pair of friends who built a shoe rack; friendship ho to aise. Woodworking is a great activity to do as a couple. (Friends or more it doesn't matter)
A father who was whetting us for a class for his son (his son is registered for a 2 month class, so we must have impressed him).
My oldest participant so far a 67 year old. He was a bit worried about energy levels, but he not only enjoyed himself but at the end of the workshop while walking off with a wine tote said, "power tools aren't difficult as long as we stand the way you taught us."
Tulu, from Pune made another beer tote. He came to us due to love. (His wife researched and found us online. Did all the research and then gifted her husband a woodworking workshop)
Finally Anand, who did the Introduction to woodworking last month made a bookshelf. As usual he finished so fast that we didn't even get a chance to click a snap with him.

Introduction to Woodworking for kids and woodworking class for kids. Due to a big push by the parents. has finally decided to do on weekends. 👏👏 From last weekend on we will have 3 kids joining us every Saturday for 3 hours.😲😲
Yes they will drive is mad, but what's the fun of life if they don't. At V for Wood, we've found that the more questions the child has, the more fun we have teaching and guiding them.🕺🕺🕺
We love curiosity and we love answering all their questions.

So this!! 💃🕺This is what you would create and take away at the weekend getaway workshop. It's all customisable, of course, the panel designs, the scroll saw art and the resin art. All of it can be tweaked, 😲 because we will teach you the skill and not just lamp making.👏👏
If this interests you then you should look at the new rates we've worked out.
So see you at the workshop

Japanese style lamp 2: getting there slowly and steadily.

Now to complete the final panel, stick some frosted paper and light it up. This is going to look really pretty.

Japanese lamp in the making for the . The little mallet we made for the is coming in real handy for all sorts of other things.

Here I'm making a panel for the Japanese style lamp and in keeping with my philosophy there are no nails or screws.... I'm using toothpicks as dowels.
