Join us for a “pressing” workshop that will showcase the use of either a hydraulic press or a vise to construct a small box with no soldering required! Enjoy this follow-along-style workshop online on Zoom Sept 25th at 10:00 am with your host Angelina Smith.

Participants get to choose the box shape they would like to create. Kit includes the die set of your choice and corresponding pattern!
