Minnesota Woodworkers Guild presents:
Mortise-and-Tenon Joints: A One-Day Fundamental Skills Course
June 20th from 9am-5pm
Taught by Steven McLoon
Registration is OPEN
Mortise-and-tenon joints are the most important type of joint used for making wooden furniture. Understanding this joint is an essential skill for any woodworker. In this class, you will first make mortise-and-tenon joints with hand tools. You then will make these joints using common woodworking machinery including a table saw, bandsaw, drill press and router. Finally you will make these joints using specialized machinery including a multi-router, hollow chisel mortiser, Leigh FMT, and Festool Domino. No matter how your shop is set up, it is useful to know multiple ways to make this joint.
Steven began woodworking in 2007 when he attended a class at the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship in Maine. Since then he has taken numerous classes and began teaching classes, lecturing, and giving demonstrations in 2011. Steven's work has been honored with awards by our Guild, appeared in Fine Woodworking, and selected for juried exhibitions.
This class has space for five participants.
