Description
1 day class
In this workshop we will demystify the art of hand-tool woodworking through practical demonstrations and hands-on instruction. We will teach you a simplified process of edge-tool sharpening as you learn how to get a razor-sharp edge on your woodworking tools, including chisels, hand planes and hand saws. You will also learn how to hand cut many of the traditional joints, including a dado, a dovetail and a mortise-and-tenon joint, through hands-on exercises. These three joints are the primary joints traditionally used in furniture construction. After completing this course you will leave with the skills and confidence to go home and start working wood by hand.
This class is from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Absolutely amazing facility, very knowledgeable staff. The one day Joinery 1 class was a great fundamentals class. I was able to learn and practice the three basic joints with the instructor who give feedback as I was working. Thank you again for the instruction, only with the one day course was longer.
