A jigsaw will do the trick. Just draw your circles, drill a hole large enough for your jigsaw blade ON THE INSIDE EDGE of your circle, put your jigsaw blade in the hole you drilled and around you go! Good luck in your new endeavor. I started woodworking on my own years ago making things I wanted but couldn't afford to buy. Have made just about everything except chairs for me, family and even sold pieces. Don't be intimidated just let your creativity soar. Best of luck to you!
Hi Blythe, great to hear you’re keen to get into woodwork! The best way to cut a big hole is to use a drill and a jigsaw. Mark where you want the bowl holes to go (make sure the holes are big enough to fit the bowl through but small enough that the lip of the bowl won’t fit through). Drill a small pilot hole at the edge of your circle. Then insert the jigsaw blade through the hole you’ve just made and cut all the way round the circle with your jigsaw. Good luck and I hope you’ll post photos on Hometalk when you’re done :) xx
Contact your local community college concerning classes. They generally offer varying levels of courses based on your skill level. You might even check with your local Lowe's or Home Depot concerning wood working classes.
As for classes, contact your local Vocational Technical school. If they don't offer them, they may know where you can find them. Home Depot holds fun classes most weekends. Ask them for their schedule.
