Guild of Oregon Woodworkers

"Welcoming organization dedicated to teaching and supporting woodworking in the community. Everyone is kind and it's a lovely place to build community while learning new skills."

"Absolutely great place for so many things woodworking related. Classes, machines, volunteering, community support, and so much more!"

"Really top notch equipment and shop assistants. The classes are a little expensive for me"

"On the day of a class my dog required emergency veterinarian attention. I arrived to tell the teacher about the emergency and was told I could reschedule by the instructor. My dog ended up passing away that day and when I went to reschedule the class I was told I would need to pay again because missing the class would cause "financial harm" to the guild. I was even told I would be unable to attend the second part of the class as only an observer. Also know the class was hundreds of dollars for per person. Both my partner and I joined the guild that year and felt totally scammed. Classes were difficult to sign up for due to limited capacities and guild policies are absurd. Leadership is nothing but a group of old grumpy a$$holes with nothing better to do then bicker amongst each other. Do better."

"Great, well-maintained professional shop where members can rent time on the equipment to supplement equipment they might not have at home. Tons of classes always available to take to brush up or learn new woodworking skills without killing your budget. Great group of people. Everyone has been very supportive and friendly. Always willing to help others who are just beginning to build their woodworking skills."
