Instructor Bio:
Reece Watson found a craftsman no 5 jack plane in 2008 while cleaning out his grandfather’s shop and restored it back to working condition. Fourteen years later, a lot of trial and error and countless tools later, Reece has a sound method of restoring these tools to their former working condition. He utilizes a hybrid approach to woodworking in his shop with a mix of power tools and hand tools. He builds custom electric guitars from scratch with a mix of epoxy and wood along with many other fine woodworking pieces. His shop is located in Toccoa, Ga.
