Woodworking | Intro to Scroll Saw Skills
Select a date from the drop-down menu.

This workshop is held indoors in our woodshop, so we suggest:
• Dress in layers so you can adjust to the studio temperature. We work with windows open.
• Bring water/beverage.
• Wear closed-toe shoes — dropping tools on toes really hurts!
• Long hair must be tied back.
• Do not wear clothing with flowy sleeves and no dangly jewelry as these items can get caught on tools and machines.

DIRECTIONS: Located in Liberty Station’s Arts District, you can find our studio at the end of the hallway on the 1st floor of the Dorothea Laub Music & Arts Center (Bldg 176) at the corner of Roosevelt & Truxtun, next to The Lot movie theater. There is plenty of free parking. Parking Lot Q is behind our studio — enter via the driveway off Dewey. Across the street in the Vons parking lot, it is also free. If you can’t find us, call or text 619.273.3235.

CLASS SIZE: 3 min. If the minimum is not met, you will receive a full refund or credit toward another class.

REFUNDS: No refunds for tardiness or no-shows. For a refund (minus a 5% processing fee), you must cancel 7 days before the start of the class. After 7 days, we cannot offer refunds, as materials and supplies have already been purchased.

TRANSFERS: You may transfer your enrollment spot to someone else, but transfers must happen before the workshop begins. Please email us to let us know who’s coming.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:

“My interest in woodworking began when I was a child watching my father make wooden toys in the garage. I became involved in the Scroll saw hobby approximately 30 years ago, after a fellow employee brought in some samples of their work. I am a former President of the San Diego Seaside Scrollers, and current Vice President of the Regular Cutups in North County, as well as a 1st Prize Winner for Fretwork at the 2024 Del Mar Fair exhibit and honorable mention in years past.

I have learned much along the way and want to share my experiences with you. There are many projects that can be done with a scroll saw. From making simple cutouts, fret work, puzzles, compound cutting, intarsia, marquetry, and more. A scroll saw can cut wood, plastics, bone, and non-ferrous metals ranging in the thickness of a playing card to 2” depending on your saw and blade used.” – Mike Moran
