About Woodworking Workshops

Why I Started Kydo

Sometimes, you just want to build something with your own hands, right? That’s what Kydo is all about. ‘Kai’ means hand in Kannada, and ‘Do’ is for doing. I wanted a space where folks could step away from screens and try making real stuff out of wood — not just scroll past it.

What You Can Expect

• No experience? Doesn’t matter. Most people who show up are complete beginners.
• The vibe is chilled out and welcoming. I won’t rush you. You’ll pick up a new skill, maybe even find that flow state where everything else just fades out.
• At the end, you take home something you actually built. Sometimes it’s rough around the edges, but that’s part of the charm.

Choose Your Workshop

• Beginner woodworking classes: Weekend sessions. You use both hand tools and power tools, learn basics like measuring, cutting, joinery — and build a couple of projects you can actually use.
• Japanese Kumiko woodworking: If you want something meditative, this is for you. It’s all about intricate patterns and making a Kumiko box or lamp, no nails needed.
• Level Up workshops: For those who want to geek out on making their own jigs and specialized tools, then use them to build something cool.
• Woodworking for interior design students: Special one-day sessions where you actually build out your ideas.

What We Make

Furniture (stools, desks, cat trees), home decor (clocks, jewellery stands), and toys — you name it, people have tried it. All materials and guidance included.

Where I Run These

Workshops are in Bangalore and Pune. Anyone curious is welcome — solo, with a friend, or even as a family. Just come ready to make something real.
