About
Building projects with "tight tolerances" is one of the most difficult and useful tasks a hand-tool woodworker can master. In this class, you'll learn the tricks and advanced skills that allow you to make wooden puzzle pieces that fit together perfectly. You'll learn to use:
- Measuring and marking tools.
- Japanese saw.
- Block planes.
- Chisels.
You'll be able to apply the skills you learn to any future projects that require accuracy.
