About this Class

Put it all together in this 4-legged stool. Designed to be held in hand by the center stretcher, this compact stool presents a great design opportunity for the turner to create a unique piece of furniture. It presents construction techniques to combine multiple woodturnings and begin building bigger. Gain an introduction to Windsor chair techniques, rectangular faceplate turning, and multi-axis spindle turning through the construction of this project. Janine will demonstrate how to navigate interrupted cuts, chucking techniques, spindle mortise and tenon joinery, and how to design your own multi-axis stretcher through offset-axis comprehension and design exercises. A great jumping off point for original wood-turned furniture to come.
