Who is this class for:
Hammerstone courses are open to all women and gender minorities. Hammerstone welcomes all trans folks including trans men. This course welcomes folks of all skill levels with no prerequisite.

Description:
Whether you’re a tiny house fan planning your own build or a DIYer looking to learn how houses are constructed, this class is for you! Some tiny house courses split tasks by experience, leaving newer students with simpler jobs. At Hammerstone, we believe everyone benefits from learning the full range of construction skills. It might not be the fastest approach, but it ensures that every student gains hands-on experience and a deeper understanding of the process. In this class we lay out stick framed walls, practice on-center spacing, frame window openings, learn about the function of sheathing, and much, much more. We hope you’ll join us.

HOW TO CHOOSE A PAYMENT >

  • I consider myself middle income/wealth. Paying this price may be a sacrifice, but I can find the resources to do so. This is the full cost of running a course including paying our teachers a fair wage, covering insurance, maintaining tools and facilities, managing administration, and supporting our family.

  • I consider myself low-income/low-wealth. I cannot access this course without financial help.

  • I consider myself low-middle income/wealth. Paying full price for this course presents somewhat of a financial hardship.

  • I consider myself upper-middle income/wealth. I would like to make a donation on top of the full price of the course in order to help subsidize access for those who cannot pay the full tuition.

  • I have the resources to make a substantial donation to ensure that these classes remain accessible to people of all income/wealth levels.
