Annapolis Woodworks 3312 Rodeo Drive, Davidsonville, MD 21035

"Troy is an amazing teacher, and the workshop is great. I took the joinery 1 class, and he had us cutting dovetails on the first day, and by the end of day 2 they were already starting to look good! We covered a number of different joints and their variations, and after 4 days I have a much bigger skill set. I highly recommend Annapolis Woodworks"

"I just took the hand cut dovetail box course with my Dad and brother. Between the three of us, we covered the full range of experience levels, yet we all learned something, had a great time and made a really nice piece. Not only do you learn to improve your skills to make better pieces, but also how to overcome common mistakes and make your project nice even if there was a little goof. Troy was a good teacher and his shop is incredible. I will be looking into other classes here in the future and would recommend it to anyone else interested in woodworking."

"Troy Beall is an excellent instructor with a massive amount of experience and expertise in the building of heirloom furniture. While I had zero prior experience using a wood lathe, I contacted Troy about my concerns about keeping up with more experienced classmates, prior to the start of our course. My concerns were unnecessary. Troy provided fantastic, hands-on lathe training, from an overview of its component parts, to various chisel techniques that allowed me to keep up with my more seasoned counterparts in class. While its a lot of work over the course of a week, and you may not always complete your project, depending on your own pace of work, you will leave with a new and/or better refined set of woodworking skills, and a functional piece of furniture. This class was some of the best money and time I've ever spent. I highly recommend Troy's classes to anyone, beginner and expert, who may be interested. I will definitely return for more courses, in the future."
