WOODWORKING 2: BUILD A KNOCK-DOWN BENCH

In this course we will build a knock-down bench. This class will build on the skills developed in Woodworking 1, focusing on safety, process, developing joinery skills, and understanding how to use the machinery. The focus will be on the design and execution of the bench using mortise and tenon joinery combined with cutting curves and shaping the sides. Students will go from raw lumber to finished wood and then focus on using the band saw, router, mortiser and sanding machines to do the joinery and finishing. There will be a materials fee ($80-$100) payable to the instructor on the first day of class.
