INTRODUCTION TO COMPOUND JOINERY WAITLIST

This course is full or has passed. Join our waitlist to be notified when a new session of this course is announced!

OVERVIEW:

This class will explore a Japanese approach to the challenges of compound joinery that result from a splay-legged form. We will be utilizing both a numeric/trigonometric method as well as a developed drawing method to directly discover the layout geometry with a hand made, full-size drawing. Students will create their own stool to take home at the end of the week, cut using hand tools. This is an intermediate-advanced class and prior experience with hand tools, mortise-and-tenon joinery, and basic trigonometry is encouraged.
