About this Class

This elegant entry table gets its lift from graceful, tapered legs, arched rails, and a floating tabletop. The pinned mortised-and-tenon joinery offers strength as well as nice detail to catch the eye. A lower shelf makes it a useful serving table in a dining room as well. In this 5-day class, students will learn how subtle curves can enliven a design, and how to build sturdy work with a delicate look. Working with curved parts can be a challenge, but with the right strategies in hand, participants will get the results they want with a minimum of stress. The floating top features a curved edge profile that Michael will guide students to tackle with hand tools.

Key Points

  • Cut fast, accurate through mortise-and-tenon joinery
  • Use a smart no-measure technique for double tenons
  • Shape tapered, curved legs with a router template
  • How to make a tabletop float
  • Combine machine and handwork for efficient accurate results
