#2 Tool Care and Repair

Written by Farmer Paige on 13 February 2012

2012 Monthly Workshop Series with Urban Patchwork

Learn “Tool Care and Repair” with UP’s resident Blacksmith and Metal Artist, Anne Woods

Have you been putting off a home garden project because your shovel is broken and your rake is rusty? Procrastinate no more! Learn to accomplish simple repairs and maintain your own home tools for the long haul. Topics to be covered include replacing/repairing broken handles, removing and preventing rust, fixing wheelbarrows, etc. A broken handle will never slow you down again!

*Bring a tool with a broken handle or a rusty tool to fix during the class, or fix a tool for the farm!

Fresh cocktails will be available complements of Dripping Springs Vodka.
