As a small Cabinet making business established 1997, we set out to provide for our customers items of furniture that are traditionally made by using exciting and interesting woods. To achieve something special for them, we book-match boards, inlay contrasting woods or Mother of Pearl, use cross banding techniques and put secret compartments or drawers into our work. We always aim to give our work that little bit extra. We specialise in cabinetmaking commissions for new and existing customers. We work in hardwoods such as Oak, Elm, and Cherry, much of which has grown in Cumbria and the South West of Scotland, to create our interesting and unusual items of furniture.
This course is rather different from the previous two. To come on this course you will need to have done both Course 1 and 2 and you need to dream up a project that you want to have a go at. You may want to spend 5 days on the lathe or want to make a key cupboard or a box with inlay, the choice is yours, keeping in mind the limitations of workshop space and the 5 days to do it in, although if you have a workshop at home you can finished it there. And just as on the other courses you will be here to relax and enjoy your week and take home another achievement and the knowledge to make more.
This is a continuation of course 1 (tools and things) with the emphases on timber, what are acceptable defects in timber and what isn't, how do you write out a cutting list that means something to your supplier, what to look for when buying wood and what to avoid. You will ideally have done course 1 (tools and things) or have a good working knowledge of how to use hand tools and have used hand held power tools. The projects for you to pick from will be more complicated and will involve the use of the more sophisticated hand tools and hand held power tools and will include using some of the static power tools in the workshop.
