Classes

You can build a high-end chair that will last lifetimes. I will help you in a 1:1 manner in my Arlington, VA workshop studio. Whether you are an experienced woodworker, or have absolutely no experience, you will learn the entire chairmaking process – from how to pick out rough slabs, to layouts, to cutting parts, to milling, to joinery, to sanding, and finishing. My favorite part of 1:1 chairmaking is building relationships with clients. Much like sherpas helped early mountaineering expeditions, I serve as your furniture-making sherpa to deconstruct a rather complicated chair with up to 130 individual components into a manageable process. If you do not understand any of the above woodworking terms, then this class is for you.
