FAQ

How do I get open studio access to the Woodshop?2024-10-18T18:11:39-07:00

At a minimum, you must take Orientation to the Woodshop to access open studio in the Woodworking Studio. If you want to use any tools covered by a safety checkout class, you must also take that class first. Woodshop Tool Safety Checkout 1 qualifies you to use the table saws, jointers, planers, miter saws, and drill press. Woodshop Tool Safety Checkout 2 qualifies you to use most of the bandsaws, stationary sanders (spindle, disc, drum, and edge belt), routers and router tables, and scroll saws.

When are open studio times in the Woodshop?2024-10-18T18:11:39-07:00

Except for a few holidays or BARN events, open studio sessions are:

  • 9 am to 3 pm every Wednesday
  • 3 to 9 pm every Thursday
  • 9 am to 3 pm every Friday
  • Noon to 6 pm every Saturday and Sunday
I’m a BARN member. How do I get fob access to the Woodshop?2024-10-18T18:11:39-07:00

After you take Orientation to the Woodshop and Woodshop Tool Safety Checkout 1 and/or Woodshop Tool Safety Checkout 2, the Membership Coordinator will reprogram your fob so it opens the main shop door during open studio hours.

Please note that the instructor will still need to open the door before a class, since classes aren’t at open studio times.

If you have taken the required classes and your fob doesn’t work during open studio, please contact the Membership Coordinator, membership@bainbridgebarn.org.

If I have a lot of woodworking experience, can I just start using the shop?2024-10-18T18:11:39-07:00

No, unless you are signing up for a class that has no prerequisites. Regardless of experience, you must qualify for Open Studio by first taking Orientation to the Woodshop. Tool Safety Checkout 1 and/or 2 are required before you can use the tools those classes cover. Experienced woodturners can qualify for lathe work by scheduling a private evaluation session with the head of the woodturning program.

Is there a cost for Open Studio?2024-11-04T13:25:25-08:00

If you are not a member of BARN you will be charged $20 each day you work in Open Studio.

Land Acknowledgment

“Every part of this soil is sacred in the estimation of my people. Every hillside, every valley, every plain and grove, has been hallowed by some sad or happy event in days long vanished.” – Chief Seattle 1854

We would like to begin by acknowledging that the land on which we gather is within the ancestral territory of the suq̀ʷabš “People of Clear Salt Water” (Suquamish People). Expert fisherman, canoe builders and basket weavers, the suq̀ʷabš live in harmony with the lands and waterways along Washington’s Central Salish Sea as they have for thousands of years. Here, the suq̀ʷabš live and protect the land and waters of their ancestors.
