Sign up here for this class on Tuesday evenings, Feb. 6 – Mar. 27, from 6 to 9pm.
We meet for seven evening sessions to build a small trestle-style table using two types of mortise and tenon joints and a sliding dovetail joint. We will practice the safe use of the table saw, miter saw, jointer, planer, router table, and band saw. Your completed table will be ready for you to apply a coat of finish at home. This course is for beginning and intermediate woodworkers. No experience is necessary.
Class covers:
- Table design

After completing this class you can extend your skills with more complex projects by signing up for the You Can Build It or Maker Club workshops.
