Make a Chisel Storage Box

Weekend Class – Open to All

Build your skills and store your tools!  Chisels present a special challenge, their sharp edges can inflict damage as well as suffer it, so if your chisels are rattling around in a drawer, or still in the flimsy original packaging, consider making a box to protect and organize them for easy retrieval.

This class will help you to grow your hand tool and machine skills as well as creating a practical storage box for your chisels that will last you a lifetime.

In the box making weekend, you’ll learn and practice box making techniques that include:

• • Box design considerations
  • Carcass construction using resawn lumber
  • Mitres & splined mitre joints
  • Setting hinges and hardware.

The goal is to complete your pieces, aside from finishing. An oil wax finish is available.
