Woodworking

This is a simple woodworking project to learn the Dado joint using a hand router and the use of a knife line. Students will leave class with two beautiful, handcrafted bookends. These will be finished with an antique oil finish.

In this class, students will create a beautiful cutting board using various woods and epoxy inlay. The wood will be cut to size on a table saw, and students will use a planer after gluing the pieces together. An epoxy accent will be poured to add a striking colored detail to the cutting board, with the option of adding glittering stones to make it a truly unique piece.

Behind every timber frame stands a set of drawings - plans that turn an idea into a buildable structure. This 2.5-day weekend course gives you the skills to draft your own timber frame plans by hand, using traditional methods that connect design directly to building. You'll start with the basics of drafting: tools, techniques, and conventions for creating clear, accurate plans. Then, you'll take your drawings off the page and practice the basic mortise and tenon joinery. This is an immersive class that blends drawing and some joinery practice. Expect guided lessons, demonstrations, and plenty of time both at the drafting board and using hand tools to cut the joinery. No prior experience is necessary for this course.
