Lie-Nielsen Hand Tool Event March 23-24, 2018

Friday March 23 9am – 6 pm

Saturday March 24 9am – 5pm

Lie-Nielsen Toolworks is bringing its popular Hand Tool Event to Goosebay Lumber on March 23-24, 2018.  This event is part of the company’s ongoing international program to expose woodworkers of all ages and skill levels to the benefits of traditional hand tools and techniques.

“We started these events to expose more woodworkers to the improvements in quality, environment, and enjoyment that handtool work can offer,” says Lie-Nielsen founder and president Thomas Lie-Nielsen, “and over the past decade we’ve seen their popularity explode with new and experienced woodworkers alike.  Incorporating traditional tools and methods can offer even die-hard machinery users ways to bring their work to the next level.  The fact that our tools don’t require earplugs or respirators just adds to the appeal.”

Lie-Nielson staff will help demystify the work of hand tool woodworking and cover topics like sharpening, tool setup and use, and joinery.  Visitors are encouraged to get hands on and ask questions.
