Joinery Basics - Woodworking - In-Person

In this class, we explore the world of wood joinery, with lots of hands-on practice. Learn to layout and cut a set of increasingly complex joints, from the half lap to the dovetail. Along the way, learn what joints do and why we use them. You'll gain a solid understanding of when and how to use joinery in your future creations. We'll use hand tools for the most part, but will demonstrate biscuit joinery, the pocket hole system, Miller dowels and the Festool domino. There will be an additional $30 materials fee due to the instructor on the first day of class. Prerequisite: Woodworking Safety Orientation. Students who have not met prerequisites will be withdrawn and charged a 20% refund processing fee.
