Description: 

This skill building class will teach novice woodworkers safe and accurate fine woodworking.  In three days students will learn the proper use and daily care of primary woodworking machines, including Jointer, Planer, Table Saw, Bandsaw and Chop Saw, as well as a small selection of hand tools. During the class each student will take a rough piece of wood and mill it down into a delicately detailed box that they can take home.

About the instructor: 

Palo Coleman grew up unfettered in Northern California where he spent a lot of time in the woods, taught himself building skills, and developed an interest in small-scale living. Now living with his wife and family in Cambridge, he continues to experiment in myriad woodworking techniques and is a tiny-house builder. Recent projects include a living playground in Waitsfield, Vermont’s elementary school; making a vertical garden system; constructing medieval games for the Fuller Craft Museum; and developing a portable studio with Japanese-wood siding.
