What is Brisbane Social Woodworking?

Brisbane Social Woodworking is a community that started in 2022 from a Facebook group.

The idea behind the group was to bring together people from the Brisbane Woodworking community in a social way.

It was put together with the emphasis of getting people together face to face to build meaningful friendships.

Since then, BSW has grown to over 2000 members with regular social events happening all over Brisbane.
