About
Learn the steps an experienced furniture maker goes through before a project is ready to build. Then go through those steps on a project of your choice.
- Day 1: View examples of the instructor's work and discuss the design steps that went into them. Learn how to go from a sketch to a detailed, scaled drawing. Using a simple class project, such as a drawer, go through these steps yourself.
- Day 2: Bring a sketch of the project you want to build. In class, develop a scaled drawing that includes joinery details so you can develop a parts list and the steps needed to build the piece.
Details
- If possible, come to class with an idea for one piece of furniture you want to build (not required).
- While there are no prerequisites to taking this class, keep your experience level in mind when selecting a project to plan.
