Program Description:
Over 5 days, you will use a combination of machines and hand tools to build an elegant wall cabinet that will quickly warm up your home. Dovetails and through wedged tenons will be the main focal point on the cabinet. We will also fit dividers in some stopped grooves and learn the artistry of drawer making.
Although the cabinet photographed is made from walnut, we will most likely be making this out of Michigan cherry with a maple shiplapped back. If there is time, we will also apply finish to our cabinets.
