A Harrogate manufacturing firm has worked with 1st Pannal Cubs to offer a remote lesson in furniture design and building.

The Harrogate cubs troop teamed up with Create CNC to learn via Zoom how to build their own piece of birch plywood furniture. Each of the 24 members were supplied with all the materials needed to make a wooden stool with guidance from instructors.

During covid, the cub sessions have been run remotely every Friday over zoom. This task enabled them to assemble the stool with instructions and tips from Create CNC.

  • Local scout troops and schools were among those helped by a £30,000 community fund. 

  • 1st Pannal scouts go virtual over covid. 





1st Pannal Group scout leader Alistair How said:





‘’Scouting is about learning skills for life, and this evening provided a hugely enjoyable and practical exercise for the cubs. Their beaming faces after creating a bespoke piece of furniture says it all. We can’t thank Create CNC enough for the design, materials and time. It’s great to see a local business supporting our young people, especially during this difficult period.’’


The instructor for the session was Create CNC managing director, Barry Bland. He said:

"The Cubs seemed to really enjoy learning about furniture manufacturing and design. The end result spoke for itself: 24 perfectly built and finished pieces of furniture... all from a one hour Zoom lesson!''
