Workshop Description

In this intensive, hands-on course, students learn to build a sophisticated display cabinet or gun case using contemporary European “frameless” construction. Far beyond basic cabinetmaking, the workshop emphasizes precision, clean reveals, modern hardware integration, and fine finishing that elevates the piece from functional storage to heirloom-quality furniture. Working step by step, students construct a robust cabinet carcass, design and fit drawers, and build two distinct door styles. They also create and attach custom side panels for a seamless, furniture-grade exterior, and craft elegant base and crown moldings for a refined, professional finish. Along the way, participants gain practical insight into materials, layout, sequencing, and the shop-proven techniques professionals use to achieve consistent, accurate results. Whether destined as a display piece or a gun case, the finished project stands as a testament to modern craftsmanship.
