Build a Sheraton Style Side Table with Steve Kain

In this exciting new class students will learn, practice and perfect their veneering and inlay skills while building an elegant small Sheraton side table. The table features Hepplewhite style tapered legs, a drawer and the extensive use of veneers and as much decorative inlay as you want. One of the highlights (and a lot of the work) is in the top. Steve will guide students through the process of designing, cutting, matching and seaming to make an attractive pattern with the veneers in the tabletop. Because of the veneer, the top will also need to be edge banded which is another skill you will be able to learn and utilize. Due to the complexity and attention to details required in this project some hand-work at home (or at the shop by advance arrangement) will be required. A good understanding of basic four-square milling and some experience with hand-tools is needed. Because this is not a class for total beginners (but it is also not so advanced that it is beyond most peoples abilities) pre-requisites for the class are the Woodworking II class or permission from the instructor or from the school director, Bob Van Dyke. Tuition: $375.00 (plus materials)
