Starting with rough hewn boards, students move through all the main machines in the shop. We cover jointing, planing and spend a good amount of time on the table saw.

In fact, if the table saw is where you want to up your game, look no further than this class! Your fears and hesitations will be addressed. We’ll dive deep into safety and hand positions. You’ll learn how to choose the right blade for the job, cut tapers and use the dado blades.
You will become a master of refinement as we walk through set ups to cut half lap and bridle joints. Concepts learned here can be used to improve your accuracy at any of the machines. You will set up all machines after demonstrations, so you remember how. These are extremely small classes and emphasis is placed on learning by doing.
I’ve had a long career in making custom furniture. I had (and still have) great clients, but after a teaching gig in Brooklyn and a few years of teaching private lessons, I realized I was happiest when sharing my skills.
In the summer of 2019 I moved my shop to American St. to make teaching my primary focus. Classes are designed to mimic how small run production shops move through their projects. There is a heavy emphasis on design and I push students to see strategies and methods that they can apply to any project.
