In this workshop, each student will build a desk chair using a combination of hand and power tools. Although participants will receive a shop drawing of the chair, Brian will also review the process of creating an isometric projection drawing, giving students a better understanding of how a design moves from paper to a finished piece. Students will learn how to shape wood into soft edges and crisp lines, creating visual continuity among the chair’s many parts. Additional topics will include designing with curves, achieving accurate layouts and precise joinery in curvilinear workpieces, carving and shaping techniques, and practical tips for a successful glue-up. By the end of the workshop, students will have a handcrafted desk chair and valuable skills that can be applied to future furniture projects.
