Building my own garden bench

Modell diving equipment

Decorating a plug-in chair
In October 2016 I had the opportunity to take part in a HolzWerken reader seminar run by Bosch and Bessey in Leinfelden. The amount of detailed information about power tools and clamping devices was almost impossible to process! Fortunately, all participants were able to take home extensive catalogs and valuable information material! The highlight of the first day was a tour of the “Bosch Powertools” production facility in Leinfelden. But most participants found day 2 even more exciting. That was when it was time to try things out in practice: each participant had the opportunity to build a simple plug-in chair. Bosch and Bessey also wanted to learn: They watched us closely as we used the different power tools and clamping devices and eagerly noted what we thought was worth praising or criticizing! A win-win situation!
