I am pleased to announce a new series of workshops to build and reinforce baseline woodworking skills using both power and hand tools
The July workshop will be focused on lumber selection and milling using a mix of tooling with plenty of hands-on exercises
Class details:
- lumber grading and sources
- rough vs S2 vs S4
- lumber storage
- power milling using jointer, planer, table saw and bandsaw
- hand tool alternatives for above
- checking for flat and square (including 5 cut method)
- hand plane and scraper honing demo and exercise
- hand plane and scraper exercise to remove milling marks, size adjustment and ready for finish without sanding
Class will run from 9am to 3 or 4 pm at my shop in NE Raleigh (shop has AC). Lunch will be provided
Cost of class is $30 donation to site - NO charge for active military
I cannot be held responsible for participants gaining a desire for Hammer, Powermatic or Lie-Nielsen tools
Next in the series of Baseline Skills workshops will be joinery probably late August
To ensure enough hands-on for all, the max number of students will be eight
