Course Overview
Long time home builder and tiny house specialist, Zack Giffin, is partnering with local professionals to teach Veterans basic carpentry skills and building techniques. Workshops teach a basic understanding of the entire construction process from the foundation to the finishing trim. Participants have the opportunity to get hands-on experience and become proficient with all tools common in home construction. Veterans learn about different types of building materials, the order of operation, and how each step effects the next, all the way through the project. We cover advanced skills such as reading and comprehending blueprints, foundation preparation, framing layout, structural considerations, understanding basic electrical, plumbing applications, and general tiny home design concepts.
Workshops are free for all Veterans. All experience levels are welcome. Tools will be provided by Milwaukee Tool, USA.
