About the Class
This program is geared to hand tool purists, building both traditional or contemporary creations, but any woodworker will enjoy this information-packed workshop.
Chris will be building a Dutch Tool Chest over the two-day seminar. Construction of this chest will include a discussion of design as well as effective building techniques and details. He'll cover typical techniques he practices daily in building his projects and teaching his classes. These techniques include cutting dovetails, dados, tongue and groove joinery, rabbets, and the use of cut nails. He will be hand-sawing and truing up the boards with hand planes. During this process, there will be lots of opportunity to discuss topics such as tool sharpening, work holding techniques, tool setup, and much more.
We'll end each day with a short presentation by Chris on several different topics. We'll cover:
