3 hours Location Kingston upon Thames Class size 1 to 6 guests   £60

To make the “Essential” tool list means no other tool can do the job. Put simply, if you want to drill a hole, then you need a drill. Most households have a drill these days, but few know how to use it properly or know what the functions of this tool are actually for.
The same goes for cutting wood. If you want to make a shelf for your cupboard, lay some flooring, or build something for the garden, then you will need to be able to cut straight. On the other hand, if you need to cut shapes or cut a section out of a board or notch around a radiator pipe, then that’s a different tool to cutting straight.
Join David for a crash course on the Drill, the Circular Saw, and the Jigsaw to learn all the do’s and don’ts. Learn how to use these three DIY lifesavers properly and safely.

  • 5/5 from Louise Stevens, attended Jan 2026: We had a great morning learning how to use the power tools. David was very patient and answered our numerous questions, which we were graetful for as we didn't have the first clue!
  • 5/5 from Lorena Little, attended Oct 2024: Loved this class. David is a great teacher, explains everything in a thorough but accessible way. He was encouraging and gave useful feedback and tips. Looking forward to taking another class here!
