Take Your Woodworking Skills to New Heights
Measuring and Layout
Successful workshop projects start with careful, accurate measuring, marking, and layout. The most critical elements in these steps of the process are good planning, accurate measuring, and using sharp marking tools that create readable lines.
Cutting
Cutting is a fundamental process that’s critical to the success of just about any project you’re likely to undertake in your workshop. It’s essentially a three-part task: laying out the cutting line; setting up for the cut; and executing the cut.
Wood Joinery
Woodworking joinery falls into two major categories–casework and furniture making. Both are defined by its materials, structure, and aesthetics.
Drilling and Shaping
Learn the basics of drilling with hand drills, corded portable drills, cordless drills, and a drill press as well as how to shape wood with hand planes, files, drawknives, spokeshaves, and other hand-powered tools.
Clamping, Gluing, and Fastening
Clamping gluing, and fastening are key steps in any successful woodworking project. You’ll learn how to clamp projects properly, select the best adhesive for the job, and the best fastening techniques.
Sanding and Finishing
No project is complete without the finishing touches! Walk through sanding techniques and finishing options like paints, stains, dyes, varnishes, penetrating oils, lacquers, and more!
Indoor Furnishings and Accessories
Build projects for indoor use like Library Bookends, Colonial Step Stool, Spice Shelves, Inlaid Tea Tray, Jewelry Box, Domino Set, Rocking Horse, Magazine Rack, Deluxe Tool Chest, and others.
