About this Workshop
Andre Roubo designed and built more than his famous workbench. In this two-day class, students will use mostly hand tools to build, out of one piece of wood, a folding bookstand complete with hinges. Participants will start with a smaller cell phone stand, then go to a larger piece of wood capable of holding a full-size book, perfect in the kitchen for recipes. If time permits, bring along a small, beautiful piece of hardwood to make that special gift for someone who still loves physical books (although the stand will also hold a tablet).
Key Points
- Build a traditional Roubo-style folding bookstand
- Learn hand tool techniques for shaping and joinery
- Create functional hinges from a single piece of wood
- Build both a cell phone stand and a full-size bookstand
- Apply the techniques to future bookstands and other projects
