The Carpentry Course is a collection of home construction “how-to” information designed for apprentice and journeyman alike!  This program consists of the seven Content Areas -

• Hand Tools
• Power Tools
• Fasteners
• Chemicals
• Bits & Blades
• Rough Carpentry
• Finished Carpentry

Within each Content Area is a wide range of Video Clips detailing topics covering all aspects of home building. Topics are presented in a concise format using a deft blend of explicit Video Clips, understandable graphics, and crisp narration. Whether it’s using a hand plane, laying out a rafter, or installing a door, your students will not only learn how it’s done—they’ll learn how to do it! This is the kind of training that makes mediocre carpentry students exceptional, and makes experienced carpenters even better! With more than 40+ initial Video Clips, and more will be added over the next year, Bergwall’s CARPENTRY Course is the next best thing to having a personal instructor.

Please note: Bergwall’s Carpentry Course will be available shortly. If you’re interested in hearing when it is available, just drop us an email and we’ll be sure to contact you.
