INTRODUCTION TO WOODWORKING: BUILD A BOX Dana Farmer and Carl Spagnoli | Woodworkers
INTRODUCTION TO WOODWORKING: THE SHAKER TABLE Carl Spagnoli | Woodworker
Develop knowledge, respect, and skill with hand and power tools through completing individual woodworking projects with a mentor. In order to introduce various tools, woods, joinery, and sound construction techniques, typically you will make a Shaker-style table—or you can choose a modest project of your own if you have relevant experience—and begin to understand the finer details of woodworking, including tending to and sharpening your tools. You will provide your own materials, which will be discussed in first class. The Cambridge C provides tools but students will be encouraged to buy some hand tools of their own—e.g., chisels, handsaw, combination square—and practice the art of maintaining them. The table project can be tailored to each student’s existing woodworking knowledge and experience so everyone is welcome.
