General Info

The wood workshop

The Woodshop mostly contains tools and equipment for working with wood and other soft materials.

Heater

During the cold months, please leave the woodshop heater plugged in, with only the left switch "on" and the time in the middle.

You are welcome to set it to always on whilst you use the shop but _please_ remember to turn it back, it costs 45p an hour to run in this mode.

Please return it back to the original state as shown beside this section:





Used Material
