This is a follow up course to Introduction to Woodworking and expands on the subjects already gone over in the initial course.
The project in this course will be designing, proportioning, and building a table. We will cover wood selection, making a detailed materials list, what wood works best for the parts of the table, drawer construction including dovetailing and fitting the drawer, and shaping vs. buying table legs.
We will demonstrate shaping on the band saw and edge sander, strengths of various joints, table top edge detailing, and allowing for seasonal movement.
