Milling and Machining

Welcome to the Milling and Machining online training course. In this course, we’ll talk about the process and tools required for milling rough lumber into a flat, square, and properly dimensioned piece of wood, also called “Milling 4 square”. This is one of the most important woodworking skills you can master because precision work begins with wood that has precise dimensions and is as flat and square as possible.

Prerequisite: Woodworking Fundamentals.
