Workshop in Transition

Hey Folks,

Sorry for any confusion surrounding the workshops at Rebuilding Exchange. Sadly, we will not be scheduling any more workshops this summer. The growing demand for our reclaimed lumber has left the deconstruction branch of our program struggling to keep up. As such we do not currently have enough materials for our Saturday Workshops. Furthermore, we are in the process of updating our shop tools, and raising funds for a massive dust collection system. The goal is to have a fully equipped, safer, and dust free workshop for the fall. We plan to continue offering rustic building workshops, open shop hours for the community, and much more. Thanks. Stay tuned!

Bench Workshop for June 11th Cancelled!

Sorry for the inconvenience folks, but we have cancelled the bench workshop for this Saturday. There were not enough interested students to fill the class. Please keep an eye on the blog for future workshops. Thanks.

Sorry for the inconvenience folks, but we've had to cancel the Planter Box workshop that was scheduled for May 28th. The workshop will be tied up the next few weeks as we complete a large custom job. The next workshop will be building benches, June 11th.

Mirrors

These mirrors were all made in the rebuilding exchange workshop. Mirrors of all sizes are donated, students get to select their own mirror, old growth lumber, and then they learn how to build a frame.
