Join one of Glasgow Wood’s talented woodworkers in their South Street workshop to learn how to build your very own piece of furniture. From cutting, assembling, to finishing, they’ll demonstrate every step which goes into transforming a pile of reclaimed scaffold boards into a finished product. For nearly the same price as purchasing the furniture from their online shop, why not take the opportunity to come in and learn for yourself and take away something made entirely by you?

Every session will also receive a short tour of their premises, located on the Barclay Curle Complex, home to one of the 4 remaining iconic Titan Cranes. You’ll also be taken through the journey of their reclaimed timber, from sorting and ‘stickering’ to preparing for resale and reuse.

See below for their upcoming sessions, and head to their website to learn more and reserve your space now.

BEN LOMOND DINING TABLE
£550-600 (Thu 26 Feb, 5-8pm, Sat 28 Feb 10-3pm)

Build your own medium-sized (1500x700mm) Ben Lomond Dining Table with clear finish in this hands-on workshop, led by one of their skilled woodworkers. By the end of this 2-part workshop, you’ll have your very own sturdy, characterful dining table, ready to take pride of place in your home or office.

ADIRONDACK LOUNGE CHAIR
£400.00 (Thu 12 Mar, 5-8pm, Sat 14 Mar 10-2pm)

Learn how to build your very own Adirondack lounge chair with clear finish, one of Glasgow Wood’s most popular outdoor pieces. Their woodworker will guide you through every step of the build process, and by the end of this 2-part session, you’ll have something that’s been made completely by you, ready to enjoy the first days of spring the following weekend.

SCAFFOLD BOARD SHELVING
£100 (Sat 28 Mar, 10-1pm)

What can you make from a 3.9m reclaimed scaffold board? Well in this workshop, you can choose exactly that. Choose how many shelves you want to make, the lengths, and decide whether you want to learn how to keep the iconic end bands. A great session to get your kitchen, living room, hallway or pantry organised!

SUILVEN BOOKCASE
£300.00 (Sat 11 Apr, 10-4pm)

Build your own bookcase in this hands-on woodworking session, where you’ll even be able to decide how many shelves your Suilven will feature! By the end of the session, you’ll head home with a unique, handcrafted piece of furniture, made completely by you.
