Woodworking is a diverse skill that’s in high demand in Seattle, particularly in the residential sector. According to recent market reports, residential construction and renovation makes up over 50% of the building business in the city. As a result, learning basic woodworking skills could give you an edge over other potential construction job applicants. Even if you’re not interested in a new career, learning woodworking skills can benefit you in other ways.

Why You Should Learn Woodworking in Seattle

If you’re interested in a new career, learning woodworking might be a great step for you. Carpenters in Seattle have an average base salary of $31 per hour or $64,480 yearly. Even if you already have a successful full-time job, you can start a side hustle building and selling furniture or other items online for a little extra fun money. 

If you’re not interested in a carpentry side hustle or full-time job, woodworking skills can provide you with a fun and positive new hobby. For example, you could craft furniture, picture frames, and other useful items for family members as gifts or for personal use. Even better, hobbies like woodworking have been shown to provide real mental health benefits for most people. 

In-Person Woodworking Classes in Seattle

If you’re interested in learning woodworking, you may want to take in-person classes with skilled carpentry professionals. These courses provide many benefits for you. First, they include a comprehensive learning experience with a hands-on professor. They can guide you through the learning process to ensure you understand woodworking skills, like using power tools. 

In-person programs also provide socialization opportunities with other students. Often, you’ll make new friends with whom you can practice your woodworking techniques. Even better, most in-person woodworking classes supply your practice materials, including wood and tools. In this way, you get the in-depth learning support that you need to succeed.

Virtual Woodworking Classes 

If the classes mentioned above don’t appeal to you, you may want to research online woodworking courses instead. These programs provide many unique benefits that make them worth considering.
