Honesty, utility, and simplicity. These guiding principles of the Shaker way of life found expression in their execution of craft, perhaps no more revered than their considerable legacy in woodworking. The style is characterized by its minimalist design and commitment to quality. The result is a lightness in space afforded by well thought out and executed joinery. This class will focus on the layout and execution of mortise and tenon joints, sliding dovetails, and for the more adventurous, half-blind and through dovetails. The basic skills covered will be dimensioning lumber, care and maintenance of hand tools, and basic finishing techniques.
