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 discuss power tools vs. hand tools and show how they can work together.
We will demonstrate shaping on the band saw and edge sander, strengths of various joints, tabletop edge detailing, and allowing for seasonal movement.
