Practical Hands On Education

DIY Electrical Confidence

The  instructors have decades of experience with electrical installations.  One is a career licensed electrician who services the Northeastern  Illinois region. The other is the owner of a home remodeling business  that is very active in Lake County and Cook County. Both are happy to  share their knowledge with students interested in DIY. They put their  experience into practice at TLLC and get satisfaction from seeing users  gain confidence and use their newfound knowledge to complete home  repairs on their own.

  

  • When: Wednesday, December 3, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
  •  What: Demystify  home electrical work! Gain the confidence to safely handle minor  electrical repairs and upgrades around your house. (No, you won't be  rewiring the whole neighborhood, but you'll feel in charge.)

Hand Tools 


 Learn from our TLLC volunteers. One instructor is a seasoned home  remodeling expert and business owner that is very active in Lake County  and Cook County. The other instructor has done extensive remodeling on  her own 100-year-old house. She has gained knowledge working with tools  borrowed from the Tool Library, and has leaned on our staff of experts  to understand the methods and materials required. 

  •  When: Wednesday, December 17, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
  • What: This  intensive, hands-on workshop is designed to turn tool-aversion into DIY  confidence. We skip the complexity and focus on the core skills needed  for essential household maintenance, ensuring you feel competent and  safe handling your tools.
