Oil Finishing By Hand
with Todd Pate
Tuesday, August 13, 5:30 PM - 8 PM
More than an afterthought, more than simply preservation and protection, finishing is THE step that takes you from project to masterpiece. There is no better compliment to a fine functioning piece of woodwork than a deep, rich oil finish that is also easy to maintain. In this class, students will learn how hand rubbed oil finishes enhance both the beauty and livelihood of wood, a brief history of finishing, demonstrations of several brands and types of finishes, and the student will leave with a hardwood trivet (or cutting board?) with one coat of the finish of their choice and the know-how not only to keep it beautiful, but also to nourish the beauty as the years go by. Woodwork only gets more beautiful over time when hand rubbed oil finishes are used.

Oil Finishing By Hand
with Todd Pate
Tuesday, September 24, 5:30 PM - 8 PM
More than an afterthought, more than simply preservation and protection, finishing is THE step that takes you from project to masterpiece. There is no better compliment to a fine functioning piece of woodwork than a deep, rich oil finish that is also easy to maintain. In this class, students will learn how hand rubbed oil finishes enhance both the beauty and livelihood of wood, a brief history of finishing, demonstrations of several brands and types of finishes, and the student will leave with a hardwood trivet (or cutting board?) with one coat of the finish of their choice and the know-how not only to keep it beautiful, but also to nourish the beauty as the years go by. Woodwork only gets more beautiful over time when hand rubbed oil finishes are used.

Hand Tool Woodworking I
with Ian Landry
Thursday, October 3, 5:30 PM - 9:30 PM
Often disregarded for the sake of time in today’s fast-paced world, hand-tool woodworking is a dying craft. Only since the industrial revolution has the convenience of machinery made woodworking “easier.” Hand-tools are a tranquil way to connect with tradition and make something truly unique that is the product of your own elbow grease. Yes, some aspects may take longer than using power-tools, however, that is not a bad thing. Work is good for the soul and infinitely rewarding. Throughout our hand-tool courses, skills will never be sacrificed for the sake of convenience. The
tools and techniques taught have been utilized for thousands of years. In this beginner class, students will learn to fundamental skills needed in hand-tool woodworking: planing, sawing, chopping, and paring. Learn from a third-generation woodworker and take home your own Gottshall Block. This small project will give students the skills to confidently make advanced woodworking projects by hand. This course is part of a sequential program aimed to build upon previous lessons with the goal of acquiring the necessary skills to confidently complete the capstone course.

River Style Lazy Susan

Wednesday, October 9, 5 PM - 9 PM
Join Jess Crow, one of the nation's leading epoxy artistic woodworking innovators, for this brand new class where you will learn how to create a river style round. This round can be used as a clock, serving tray, lazy susan or more. Once you have the concept down you will be able to take this technique and turn it into a table of any size or shape. Jess will guide students through the river style process, including how you prepare a live edge slab*, how to save not only wood, but epoxy, creating a River Style project using Jess's "more is less" method, adding custom colors and designs, selecting and pouring the proper resin, and more! Students will have the option to add the lazy susan hardware when they come back to pick up their projects.
*Note about this class. We will not be using a live edge slab, rather Jess's signature technique to conserve epoxy while having the look of a live river. During class there will be a complete walkthrough on how to build a live edge river table and a syllabus will be made available covering both techniques.

Woodworking Fundamentals II
with Ron Howes
Part 1: Friday, November 22, 9 AM - 5 PM
Part 2: Saturday, November 23, 9 AM - 5 PM
In the second part of our Woodworking Fundamentals series, students will receive hands-on practice with generating a cut-list, processing lumber, laying out and creating joinery, cutting tapered legs, assembling tables, and applying an oil finish (as time allows). Along with developing the foundational skills learned in Fundamentals I, the main focus of this class is on discussing pros and cons of several joinery methods, including pocket screws, dowels, dominos, and Mortise and Tenons. Students will be able to apply at least one of these methods to their Shaker End Table projects, and will leave with a better understanding of woodworking joinery and furniture construction techniques. PRE-REQUISITE: Woodworking Fundamentals I OR Table Saw/Jointer/Planer.

Woodworking Fundamentals I
with Todd Pate
Saturday, December 7, 9 AM - 5 PM
This class is designed for beginners who want to learn how to safely use the core tools of the wood shop. During the first half of the class, we will focus on how to properly flatten and size lumber using the table saw, jointer, and planer. Once the material is flat and square, we will discuss glue up methods as we join the material to create a cutting board. The second half of the class will focus on safely using the router and router table to shape the board and apply a decorative edge. Students will leave with a completed project and a great foundation for starting their woodworking journey!

Oil Finishing By Hand
with Todd Pate
Tuesday, December 17, 5:30 PM - 8 PM
More than an afterthought, more than simply preservation and protection, finishing is THE step that takes you from project to masterpiece. There is no better compliment to a fine functioning piece of woodwork than a deep, rich oil finish that is also easy to maintain. In this class, students will learn how hand rubbed oil finishes enhance both the beauty and livelihood of wood, a brief history of finishing, demonstrations of several brands and types of finishes, and the student will leave with a hardwood trivet (or cutting board?) with one coat of the finish of their choice and the know-how not only to keep it beautiful, but also to nourish the beauty as the years go by. Woodwork only gets more beautiful over time when hand rubbed oil finishes are used.
