Alameda: Cat/Dog Feeder Workshop (November)

Join Dykes With Drills at Bay Area Maker Farm for a fun, beginner-friendly woodworking workshop where you’ll learn how to build a special feeder for your furry friend!

In this hands-on workshop, participants will learn how to safely use a chop saw, jigsaw, and drills while building their own custom cat or dog feeder. Participants will also learn about “finishing” techniques (sanding, staining, painting, polyurthaning, etc.) to personalize their project but finishing will be done on your own time.

No prior woodworking experience is required—just bring your curiosity and get ready to build something your pet will love!

This workshop takes place at Bay Area Maker Farm in Alameda.
