About

Explore the world of wood finishes, from traditional to contemporary, and go home with a sample board to use as a reference for future projects.

This two-session class will cover commonly used finishes, application techniques, compatibility of finishes and how to identify and repair damage on existing pieces. Students will have a chance to experiment with a variety of materials as they  create their sample board .

Details:

  • Open to beginners. But, like all users of the woodshop, students must first attend our free, one-hour Orientation to the Woodshop class. Multiple sessions are listed on the Woodshop calendar.
  • Materials fee of $20, payable to the instructor at the class.
Instructor:  Carol Fiedler Kawaguchi is a professional woodworker who specializes in restoration of antique furniture through her business, C-Saw, on Bainbridge Island. After earning a fine arts degree from Western Washington University, she worked in New Mexico as an apprentice ceramicist and then as an apprentice violin maker, which taught her a lot about fine woodworking and traditional finishes. She began designing and building custom furniture in the mid 1980s. Her interest in European, Early American and Asian antiques led her to focus on their restoration and repair.
