Our centre hosts & operates a fully equipped shop which includes workbenches, table saw, jointers, shapers, bandsaw, drill press, belt sander, drum sander and a selection of hand tools.
We do not have any on-site supervision and restrict access to members who have the skills and experience to work safely in this high risk environment, while working alone.
To assess skills, members are provided with a one-on-one orientation prior to joining. The woodshop is bookable online and can be accessed 24/7 by members.
Woodshop users must pre-book a 1-3 hour duration.
Members get 24 hour, private use of the space!
If you are a first time user of the woodshop you will need to set up an orientation with our woodshop volunteer Ken.
Please fill out the “Become A Member” form below to set up an orientation.
While affordability will always remain a core focus at RVAC, we also need to make sure we’re maintaining a safe, reliable, and high-quality environment for our community.
Thank you for inquiring about the woodshop, please fill in the following information and submit the form back to us.
Because wood shop members have 24-hour access to a high-risk environment, access is limited to individuals who can work safely and confidently on their own. For those looking to build skills or gain more experience, we offer a range of woodworking classes.
To be notified when new workshops are released you can become a member or join our mailing list. Just scroll to the bottom of this page and fill in the section titled “Don’t Miss Out”.
