We recently had the pleasure of conducting our 2 Day Introduction to Woodworking Class held over Friday and Saturday October 18 and 19 at our Boondall Workshop.
Our students chose various timber and design choices according to their personal preferences and to match their existing decor.
Chris chose American Ash for his hall table
Rolf opted for Tasmanian Oak Top and Rosewood legs
On the first day , our enthusiastic students made the parts for their hall table.
Milling all the timber, cutting to the desired length and jointing the rails to the legs
They then finished their first day with biscuiting the top together and cutting the top to length.
It was an intense productive day, where new systems were learnt and information overload for our enthusiastic team players.
Day two Saturday sees our woodworkers
Check all their measurements of
*legs
*top
*rails (check twice cut once )
Cut all these to desired length
Biscuit the top together
Glue the underframe
Tighten joints if necessary
Clean up
and apply a Lacquer finish for a stunning end result.

They have created a beautiful piece of furniture (heirloom) that they should be so proud of
