This workshop is part of our Two Sheds Shelter Series of workshops for women.
In this 2 day weekender held in Bega you will learn how to build a timber paling fence. By the end of the workshop you will be using power tools such as a circular saw & the mitre saw with ease. The spirit level & water level will feel like extensions of your arms. You’ll be in love with clamps & your hammer! And you’ll be ready to tackle your own fencing projects with confidence.


Building a timber paling fence requires a combination of various skills, both technical and practical – this workshop will cover them all. Measuring & cutting, setting out, post installation, levelling & aligning and discussions of the best materials to use.


Post Hole Digging: You’ll be pleased to know this will already be done for us! We will be learning to build smart & this starts with having a machine do the hard yakka here. But we will be discussing the holes – the shape & size, how deep all the nitty gritty without the blisters & sweat!

Under the instruction of Jo Saccomani (our fearless leader of Two Sheds!) you will leave with all the knowledge, techniques & hands on skills you will need to build your own fences. Jo has been a carpenter for many years (like over 30!) & knows many tips & tricks to get your carpentry jobs done with ease. She has been teaching skills to women since the start of Two Sheds 10 years ago & has focused on how to build your confidence & skills in a supportive, fun way.


This workshop will be run onsite in Bega. There are plenty of places to stay nearby that we can point you towards.
The cost of this 2 day workshop is $350 inc GST
