Making and fitting drawers is an art in itself, and when done cleanly and efficiently, it can elevate fine casework. In this two-day workshop, Owain will share the best practices for making a classic piston-fit dovetail drawer. Students will learn everything from initial stock selection and preparation, to getting the final perfect fit with a hand plane.

Key learning points:

  • cutting half-blind and through dovetails (both by hand and with machines),
  • options for drawer bottoms and stops,
  • strategies for designing and making custom wooden pulls.
