Woodworking & General Shop Skills

Girl's Garage

Girl’s Garage

Girls Garage is a nonprofit design and building program and dedicated workspace for girls ages 9-18. Through classes in carpentry, welding, architecture, and activist art, we support and equip a community of fearless girls who are building the world they want to see. Established 2013.

The playlist linked above, ‘’Tool School’’ is a distance-learning version of a popular Girl’s Garage training program.

  • Girl’s Garage Tool School Videos:
    • Episode 1: Lumber — Find out about the dimensions of lumber, how it comes out of the tree and gets processed, and factors for choosing the correct wood for your project.⁣
    • Episode 2: Drawings + Cut Lists — By making a plan, section, and elevation drawing and a cut list (like a recipe, but for building!), you’ll have all the visual information you need to make precise cuts and put your project together.
      Episode 3
      Measure + Mark: Learn how to use a tape measure, a special builder’s mark called a “caret”, and a speed square (which is actually shaped like a triangle??!) to measure and mark your wood.
      Episode 4
      Chop Saw: Watch Emily demonstrate the proper, safe technique for using a chop saw (for adults only!), and explain what “kerf” means.
      Episode 5
      Coping Saw: Coping saws are traditionally used for “coping joints,” making curved profiles in crown molding so that corners fit together perfectly, but they are also a fantastic hand saw for small projects.
      Episode 6
      Jigsaw: Grab a fresh pack of T-shank blades and charge your batteries! In this episode, Emily shows the parts and features of a jigsaw and how to use it to cut out irregular shapes.
      Episode 7
      Sanding, Nails, and Screws: Find out the fascinating history of nail sizing (does a 16-penny nail cost 16 cents?!), along with how to choose screws, and how to sand with the right grit.
      Episode 8
      Drill + Impact Driver:Use a drill and its “sister tool,” the impact driver, to make a pilot hole, and then install a screw. Find out why a drill is more likely to strip your screw head and how to insert and remove bits.
      Episode 9
      Voila! And A Pop Quiz!:A few hinges, a hasp and lock, and ta-da!! Our box project is done! Take a 6-question pop quiz to test your knowledge of what we’ve learned together in our first season of Tool School.

MIT Machine Shop Training Series

These videos are a great resource for new machinists. In 1995, Erik Vaaler the director of MIT’s machine shop for the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (Robotics Group) made ten videos, totaling more than seven hours, that teach students how to use machine tools. They show how to set up and do basic machining operations on a mill, lathe, drill press and other common shop equipment. These are a great start for students learning machining and interested in learning concepts before working to gain access to one of the machine shops on campus.
