"I went to Jon at Dumbo Workshop to help me make a cutting board. My wife had given me a gift certificate.  I wanted something elegant looking that I could use regularly for a long period of time. Jon didn't just teach me to make a cutting board, he walked me through the entire process of planing, material acquisition, execution, and even managing caveats. The final product was a gorgeous piece of woodworking and a set of skills that I later re-purposed to make a similar project by myself later on. I took the skills he taught me and applied them to a serving tray that I gifted to back to my wife. The new piece came out beautifully and I was even more impressed by how much of Jon's teaching stayed with me. I would recommend the Dumbo Workshop to anyone considering it. Jon does an incredible job of balancing your independence with his extremely capable ability to teach. "
