Digital design is also represented within the festival programme. The CAD for Woodworkers course focuses on using CAD to plan, visualise and communicate woodworking projects, while the Introduction to CAD for Woodworkers masterclass provides an entry point for those interested in digital design.

For professional woodworkers, furniture manufacturers, joinery companies and design professionals, CAD can support accurate planning, detailing and communication throughout a project.
