Sun City WoodWorks is organized as a club under the Sun City Civc Association. Although the association pays for the room, electricity and major equipment it is up to the club members to purchase all of the consumables.
Donations and anuall dues go towards items such as glue, brads/staples, and the purchase of blades, etc.

Repair Projects

In addition to the projects that our members bring in for themselves there are a number of times that residents of the community bring in items that need repair.
These should have a tag filled out and attached to them showing what type of repair is desired. Our members are welcome to tackle these. Please talk with the safety monitor to indicate your intentions and coordinate who is working on what.
