Saturday 10 August

Building boat and plane kits for the Hobart Show from 9am to noon

Members gather to produce the components of the toy boat and plane kits for the Hobart Show in October each year. This is a great way to hone your skills and get signed off on the use of Guild equipment while contributing to one of the only free events at the Hobart Show. Children of all ages and skills get to prepare and nail together a free wood toy, with the assistance of our members. Get involved, you will not regret it.
