Build your own Ben Lomond dining table workshop

4 places available in total!

Join us for a 2-part workshop to build your very own medium-sized (1500x700mm), Ben Lomond Dining Table from reclaimed scaffold boards — guided step-by-step by one of our skilled woodworkers.

You’ll begin with a short tour of our South Street workshop, witnessing firsthand how reclaimed timber moves from sorting and “stickering” to preparation ready for reuse. From there, we’ll walk you through every stage of the build: cutting the boards to size, assembling the tabletop, attaching your chosen style of legs (straight or tapered), sanding smooth, and applying a clear finish that brings out the unique character of the wood.

After the Thursday evening session, we’ll reconvene on Saturday to complete the final touches — smoothing edges, fine-tuning joinery, and finishing your bookcase with a clear stain, our most popular finish option which highlights all the character within the reclaimed wood whilst helping to prolong the life of the product. We'll then arrange with you a later date to collect as the bookcase will need curing/drying time.

The Thursday session begins at 5:00pm and will finish at approximately 8:00pm.
The Saturday session begins at 10:00am and will finish at approximately 3:00pm.

You must be able to attend both sessions.
