Woodshop Instructor

Generator Makerspace is seeking an experienced Woodshop Instructor to lead our regular Wood Shop tool trainings. This foundational class introduces students to the traditional equipment and techniques used to turn rough sawn lumber into usable stock, covering safe operation of the jointer, planer, table saw, miter saw, bandsaw, drill press, and sanders. Students also learn core woodworking concepts like grain direction, hardwood vs. softwood, and dimensional vs. dressed lumber. Trainings run two 3-hour sessions on consecutive weeknights, are offered once a month, and are limited to 4 students per class.

The ideal candidate is safety-conscious, a confident woodworker, and comfortable teaching beginners in a hands-on setting. Familiarity with our tools is preferred but not critical, as training is provided to bridge any gaps in experience.
