Private Training Pricing

At the shop in Perth

The cost for private training is $110/hr at the shop in Perth. This includes tool use, professional
instruction and help arranging plans and timber. Typically, people have come with plans prepared for a
project they are working on and we spend 1 – 4 days working on different components of the project.
This gives students a good jump on their project and the confidence to take it home and complete the
work.
