Epoxy & Wood Charcuterie Board

Part 1: Sunday, September 6, 2026, 12 PM - 3:30 PM

Part 2: Sunday, September 20, 2026, 12 PM - 3:30 PM

Using resins and epoxies can help create beautiful projects, but which resin or epoxy is right for the job? Do I use a urethane resin or do I use an epoxy? (Wait, there’s a difference?!) How deep can I pour my resin or epoxy? What happens if I don’t mix using the correct ratio of resin/epoxy to hardener? How much do I pour? These are all questions (and then some) that will be answered during this class. In this two day class, we will be using reusable silicone forms to create a hybrid wood and epoxy cutting (or charcuterie) board. Day one will consist of a discussion about resin or epoxy and by the end of day one, students will pour TotalBoat ThickSet epoxy into a silicone form that will become their own creation that they take home after day two. On day two (one week later), students will work with their demolded creations to flatten them and turn them into beautiful cutting boards or charcuterie boards that they will finish (during the class) and take home.

Small pieces from large pieces, in a nutshell that's what resawing is. We will take you through the steps to produce bandsaw veneer. Blade selection, adjustment, tune-up and fence usage will be covered. If you are having trouble resawing on your bandsaw this class will get you going in the right direction. Students will be granted a 10% discount on most accessories and hand tools the day of the class.

Coffee Table with Turned Legs

Part 1: Friday, September 18, 2026, 9:30 AM - 3:30 PM

Part 2: Saturday, September 19, 2026, 9:30 AM - 3:30 PM

In this 2 day class you will be making a 2 tone coffee table with turned legs. The first day of the class will focus on duplication in spindle turning. We will be using rulers, calipers, dividers, etc. to create 4 identical, or at least close enough to fool the eye, legs. We will also discuss some of the other options for duplication and when you may want to use them. On the second day, we will focus on creating the top and apron for the table as well as the final assembly. You will use the Festool Domino to help glue up the top and attach the legs to the apron. There will be a lot more attention on how to create the attachments needed to create a table. At the end of the class you will have a beautiful table that just need a coat of finish to be ready to use.
