Intermediate Woodworking: Small Table 2M25

Create a customizable Shaker table from ash wood.
Choose your own dimensions for an end table, coffee table or another small table. Learn how to adapt the dimensions of a basic design. Then, join boards for your tabletop using a biscuit jointer, cut tapered legs and use a mortising machine for mortise and tenon joinery. Limit 6 students.
Good for students who have completed Basic Woodworking: Box, but want the next step before going to Woodworking Open Shop.
*Prerequisite: 'Basic Woodworking: Box.' Experienced wood-workers who have not taken 'Basic Woodworking: Box' - please contact .
All materials included in tuition.
If needed, a make up session for this class is scheduled for Saturday 8/17/25.
After avoiding many in-person activities for a while because of COVID, I wanted to work with wood again and to do a fun activity with other people. The class atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and I also liked the project!
