Workshop Description

Experience a weekend like no other; this is two days of delving into the hidden properties of wood, discovering secrets you may never have expected. Students will undertake about a dozen niche activities, which include using the steam process to create impossible joints, embossing raised textures onto wood, and using instant hot laminations for very extreme bends. By the end of Sunday, students will take home unique wooden objects, including flat artwork that can be used to create a sign or set of keyrings, a small 3D piece, and a small tessellating box or child’s toy.

Key Points

  • How to source and select wood for steam bending
  • How to make a steam chamber
  • 2D and 3D bends, twisting, splitting
  • Three types of compression straps
