We are hosting a free community event with Lie Nielsen Toolworks, showcasing their top-notch woodworking hand tools. Come see how quality hand tools can make your woodworking projects easier, with demonstrations by Kevin Drake of Glen-Drake Toolworks in Fort Bragg, California. During the event, make sure to pick up a $25 off coupon for your next Crucible class!

We’ll see you on September 22-23 for a weekend of hand tool exploration and inspiration. This event is free and open to the general public. All are welcome! However, parents of small children will need to pay special attention, as our studio space does have some rough edges.

The Crucible is conveniently located near BART and AC Transit. We encourage public transportation as our parking lot is small.
