Introduction to Furniture Making Workshop - Our June Class
It was with much enthusiasm that we re commenced our Woodworking Classes this month.
We welcomed a very happy group of students to our Boondall Workshop on Saturday Morning June 6.
Stuart began the day with an introductory talk about design , construction methods and the various tools used to construct solid timber furniture.
Prior to class commencement, the students nominated their timber of choice along with their individual dimensions that would enable each student to create the table that would suit their home perfectly.
There is little advantage in offering a cookie cutter project as the joy of woodworking is being able to create something beautiful that suits you, your home , your decor your personal taste…
The first day saw students prepping their table parts, including working out the grain pattern, glueing up the tops and then working on the underframe .
A productive morning on the bandsaw
Shaping is a good arm workout

Its all in the construction
Check twice, mark once,
A productive day for our students
The second day, saw our students complete construction on their tables, cutting to the desired length, hand planing to ensure the edges are smooth.
This was then followed by sanding all parts to ensure smooth even grains, route edging if so desired.
The final stage was the application of a polyurethane lacquer to protect and ensure longevity of the tables.

Cheers Harry, we love your Tasmanian Oak Hall table
It was a wonderful workshop, where we were able to share our love and knowledge of woodworking with such a wonderful bunch of people
To encourage their creativity, and to step away from the day to day and do something wonderful for yourself is a beautiful thing to do.
