Post and Rung Stool Class

Description: In this once weekly course, each student will build a post-and-rung stool out of sustainably harvested Oregon White Oak. Throughout the month of Monday night sessions, students take a crash course on natural dyes and dye their cotton webbing for their stools, learn about splitting logs for stool pieces, and we shape already split stool parts using a shaving horse, drawknife, and spokeshave. But that’s not all! Students will also use mortise and tenon joinery to assemble their shaped parts into furniture, and explore different weaving patterns with traditional shaker tape (aka cotton webbing) to weave a beautiful pattern for their seat. All experience levels are welcome to participate.Class Max size: 8Materials Fee: $60
