Thank you for visiting the North Carolina Furniture School
NC Furniture School is a woodworking and CNC education center based in Farmville, North Carolina, dedicated to teaching woodworking classes, furniture making, CNC machining, CAD/CAM, woodturning, and wood finishing to beginners, serious hobbyists, and working professionals. Our mission is simple, We seek to ‘Preserve, Promote, and Advance the Heritage of Woodworking in North Carolina’. We support the NCFS mission through rigorous, hands-on craft education, taught on professional equipment, expertly taught by experienced instructors, in a safe, supportive environment.
We believe that students learn by doing, with thoughtful woodworking classes designed to help you advance
NCFS Classes are structured to move from foundational skills—tool safety, milling, joinery, and surface prep—to advanced topics such as CNC toolpaths, CAD/CAM workflows, complex furniture construction, and high-performance finishing systems. Class formats include one-day intensives, multi-day workshops, and progressive tracks that help you build confidence, technique, and repeatable process.
Precision equipment makes all the difference
We teach with a compliment of new and old equipment, which has been carefully curated since our founding in 2013. In our classes you will learn to setup and operate the equipment with care and precision, in small classes. This ensures that every learner receives personal guidance. You will practice with industry-standard CNC machines, industrial grade traditional woodworking machines, premium hand tools, and proven finishing materials, so you can take what you learn here, directly to your own shop.
We help you cut through the noise & learn the right way with in-person Woodworking Classes
We understand the challenges you face in learning woodworking. Countless hours watching videos online, reading blog after blog, trying to find good clear photos of how to hold your hands in the right way or searching for information that doesn’t exist about building jigs and fixtures…we get it. We help you overcome these problems in ways that only in-person learning can accomplish. Our classes emphasize shop safety, practical problem solving, and best practice methodologies in a supportive environment. Whether you want to launch a career, sharpen professional skills, or elevate your hobby, NC Furniture School provides a clear, modern path to mastery in woodworking and digital fabrication.
