* This class has prerequisites. Please see below.

Build an elegant wooden pie box with a punched copper top as you gain experience on tools in BARN's Woodworking and Sheet Metal studios.

In this three-evening class, you will use a table saw, chop saw and other tools to build a pegged box from cypress. You will also create a decorative punched-copper top, which will allow steam to escape as your pie cools, and a stainless steel drawer to hold the pie.

If you also register for the November Monthly Bakealong: Pumpkin Pie, scheduled for Nov. 26 in BARN's Kitchen Arts Studio, you'll be able to give your freshly baked pumpkin pie a ride home in style.

Details:

  • Open to people age 14+ who have completed * Woodshop Tool Safety Checkout 1 and * Sheet Metal: Safety and Orientation (free). If you have not taken these classes, please register for them before you sign up for this class. Please see the Woodshop calendar here and the Sheet Metal calendar here.
  • Before the first class, draw the design you want for the perforated metal cover. For ideas, you can search Google images for "punched tin." Make your drawing full scale, allowing at least a 1-inch border around the 12-inch-square metal you will be decorating. You will transfer your drawing directly to the metal. The image shows the type of design that would be suitable. 

Instructors: Carol Fiedler Kawaguchi will guide the woodworking phase. Linda Sohlberg will head up the metalworking. Carol is a professional furniture restorer. Linda heads BARN's Sheet Metal Studio.
