Significant Growth in Woodworking Skills and workbench build project (review both projects and pictures below):

My skill, knowledge, and ability to execute woodworking techniques grew several levels because of the time I spent working with Hendrik Varju at his shop, Passion for Wood. Hendrik is an excellent teacher, a delight to work with and has deep expertise and understanding of fine furniture building. His excellent communication skills are central to the significant value I received from attending his school. He clearly and patiently explained (and explained again when I didn’t get it) the processes and techniques needed to complete the writing desk I built. He frequently documented his instruction in my notebook which has become a frequent reference on new projects. Hendrik guided me on what to do and how to do it and I totally enjoyed it. He found my mistakes, showed me what to do differently and how to correct the error all in a very positive and supportive manner. Hendrik has a great sense for what you need and is able to communicate according to what works for you.

I travelled from my home in Louisville, KY to Passion for wood (about a nine-hour drive) and rented an Airbnb in one of the nearby villages. We worked one on one together for a total of 15 days. The first 7 days in late June 2023 and the final 8 days in early September. The piece I brought home is stunning. My friends are amazed at my new skills. The writing desk is solid cherry, the legs are joined to the aprons with mortise and tenon joinery, the drawer with half blind dovetails. It’s a beautiful piece and I’ve received many complements.

Finally, I should mention how I learned about Hendrik in the first place. Several years ago, I purchased my first table saw thinking I wanted to elevate my woodworking projects. In hindsight, I didn’t have a clue how to use the machine. I had an accident that could have severed my finger but fortunately only damaged the fingertip and fingernail of my index finger. I was lucky. I didn’t touch the machine for one year. Before I tried again, I looked for instruction on how to properly use a table saw. An internet search resulted in Hendrik’s video on table saw set up and safety. It was just what I needed. All of his videos are great. I’ll forever be cautious, but I now have confidence that I can safely and effectively operate my machines.

With the knowledge I’ve gained from Passion for Wood I have the foundation necessary to begin creating my own designs and the confidence to try interesting variations in technique, should I so choose. And, if I get stuck, I can call Hendrik for advice.
Thank you, Hendrik.

Woodworking Bench Build:

My second major project with Hendrik was a top of the line professional level woodworking bench. It is a beautiful piece that has elevated the work in my home shop.
I very much needed a proper workbench for my home shop and I asked Hendrik if he could guide me and assist me in building a woodworking bench with proper vises, dog holes and sturdy enough for any job.
We collaboratively developed plans, I prepared some of the pieces for the base in advance then traveled to Hendrik’s shop for the build.
The timeframe was tight. Hendrik directed me on all of the proper technics and skills. We worked together very well, he’s such a pleasure to work with.
The woodworking bench is a fabulous piece that will be around for many years after me. Best of all, it is a beautiful piece that shows the highest level of skill and expertise. I’m proud to enjoy this workbench in my home shop. See pictures below.

I recently started lessons with Hendrik, and I can’t recommend him enough.
For our first session, I visited his beautiful shop, where he walked me through router safety—something I thought I already knew well. I’ve been using a palm router for a while, but Hendrik showed me why you never take it all in one go, how bits can come flying out if you’re not careful, and how important it is to work in small, safe increments. He also completely reshaped the way I think about finishing—turns out I’ve been sanding wrong my whole life, and his method makes all the difference.
For our second lesson, Hendrik came to my shop, which is set up inside a 31-foot Airstream. He tuned up my bandsaw, adjusted my table saw with the riving knife and fence to prevent kickback, and showed me why ripping and crosscuts need to be approached differently. He’s full of stories that make the dangers real without being overwhelming, and honestly, as someone who’s a professional touring musician, I need all ten fingers in working order!
Hendrik is clear, concise, and makes thoughtful notes in my notebook so I can keep learning between sessions. His mix of technical expertise, real-world safety focus, and approachable teaching style makes him an exceptional woodworking teacher. If you want to become safer, more confident, and more skilled in the shop, I highly recommend spending some time with Hendrik.

I took a couple of lessons with Hendrik to learn woodshop safety and basic woodworking techniques, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. He was extremely patient and thorough in walking me through the safety instructions, making sure I felt confident using each tool and machine before moving on.

What I really appreciated was how hands-on and collaborative the lessons were. We worked together to design a planter box, and he guided me step by step through the process—teaching techniques while also letting me take the lead so I could learn by doing. With his support, I was able to complete the project successfully and walk away with valuable new skills.

I highly recommend Hendrik to anyone looking to build their woodworking skills in a safe, supportive, and enjoyable environment.

My decision to take one-on-one woodworking lessons with Hendrik started with a simple, but serious question:

“If I lost a finger, how much would I pay to get it back?”

As a beginner, my biggest concern was safety—especially when using power tools. I knew I didn’t have to learn woodworking, so if I was going to do it, I wanted to learn the safest way possible. If not, I wouldn’t do it at all. That mindset led me to Hendrik—and his lessons turned out to be exactly what I needed.

Hendrik is like a walking encyclopedia when it comes to woodworking and power tools. He knows precisely where and how things can go wrong, and he breaks everything down in a clear, logical way that even a complete beginner can follow. With power tools, the danger is that you don’t know what you don’t know—and you really don’t want to find out the hard way. From kickbacks, amputations to fire hazards from oil-based finishes — there are just too many ways things can go wrong in the craft of woodworking. I’ve read horror stories on Reddit where people learned these lessons after accidents. In every case, Hendrik had already warned me about those exact scenarios.

Hendrik has an obsessive attention to details, especially when it comes to safety, and I really appreciated that. He’ll correct something as subtle as the angle of my hip during a cut—and then explain the very real reason behind it. These are things I would never have thought about, but they make a huge difference. His training has given me the confidence to use saws and other tools properly. It would have been a big mistake to start by watching YouTube videos. Now that I’ve trained with him, I can clearly see how many dangerous habits and risky shortcuts are floating around online.

For my project, I took on what’s considered an “advanced” build: a coffee table with a custom shelf and a cutting board-style tabletop. I learned to use the table saw, planer, jointer, bandsaw, router, and a range of hand tools. From initial design to precision work, Hendrik guided me every step of the way. In building this project, I have developed a real appreciation for the skill, thought, and effort it takes to make something that looks "simple".

Another thing I truly valued was how specific Hendrik is. He can estimate whether and how much a tabletop will expand or contract in all three dimensions. He'll help you calculate the exact number of clamps needed for a glue-up to get optimal pressure. He gives thoughtful product recommendations down to the brand and model—always with clear, practical reasons that I’d never have considered on my own. No question goes unanswered. He explains complex ideas clearly and logically, and it’s genuinely a pleasure to learn from him. His *passion for wood* is contagious.

Now I have a beautiful, custom-made coffee table that you won’t find in any store—and I’m proud to have built it. I recommend Hendrik without hesitation to anyone interested in woodworking. Whether you’re just starting out or already experienced, you’ll learn a ton from his lessons.

If anyone has wanted to take a woodworking course for beginners to start learning the essentials, this is the man to see. He also offers more advanced classes, which at some point I can’t wait to take.

The one thing that I was very impressed with (that may seem minimal to some people) is the amount of care he puts into proper safety habits. He makes sure you’re doing it with all of your fingers lol.

I was only able to spend a week with him, but the knowledge he gave me in that time is incredible. After spending those days there, I realize I truly made the right choice for whom I would learn from. There are a lot of people out there instructing and I really did my research to pick the right person and I can promise you it is with Hendrik.

To give a good idea of the trust I have in him, we hope to be able to fly him to our soon to be built shop to help set it properly. We wouldn’t do something like that if he wasn’t well worth it.

You’ll enjoy your time with him and take away so much that books can’t even teach you.

As a relatively new woodworker I had the pleasure of taking a 6 day course with Hendrik in February 2024. The course was centered around building a beautiful table from hardwood cherry while learning the fundamentals of woodworking. Throughout the course we covered a lot of great content from using a table saw, jointer, and planer, understanding the science of wood, joinery, routing fine details, hand planning, sanding, and finishing.

Hendriks approach to teaching was excellent and clearly demonstrated his extensive experience and passion for woodworking. He was very patient and approached teaching with flexibility that was catered to my knowledge and ability. Every morning I looked forward to what we were going to learn, and every night I felt amazed at how much we accomplished. I highly recommend this course for anyone interested in woodwork!
