DIYcave is a community makerspace and shared workshop in Bend, Oregon, offering hands-on classes, professional tools, memberships, and workspace for woodworking, wood lathe, welding, metalworking,
CNC, laser cutting, 3D printing, jewelry, lapidary, sewing, leatherworking, glass, and more.
Make jewelry. Learn the skills. Keep creating.
Making your first piece of jewelry is exciting. Learning the skills to make your second, third and tenth is where things really get interesting.
DIYcave’s jewelry program is designed to help you do both — create something you’re excited to wear while learning real metalsmithing skills you can keep using. Start with soldering, sawing, forming and texturing, then build into stone setting, ring making, metal clay and more.
And when class is over, Jewelry Open Studio gives qualifying students a place to keep practicing, work on personal projects and connect with a growing community of local makers.
