While parts are provided pre-turned, students will focus on shaping, spokeshaving, and fitting each component to ensure a precise, thoughtful build. We’ll explore key chairmaking concepts like kiln-dried joinery, steam bending and grain orientation, while also preparing the chair for the main event: weaving a beautiful and durable envelope-pattern seat with Danish paper cord. The weaving takes up the entire final day of class and feels like its own immersive experience—making this course uniquely balanced between woodworking and seat weaving. Note that this course involves both extended periods of sitting and standing. The weaving process is a physically demanding skill for the hands and arms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eIn this class, you will:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\"\u003eSpokeshave provided turned legs and rungs to refine their surfaces and overall form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,1,0\"\u003eShape round seat rails into precise oval forms that complement the Danish cord seat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,2,0\"\u003eWatch a demonstration of turning parts and sizing tenons on the lathe (all stool parts are pre-turned for you).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,3,0\"\u003eLearn the design logic and jig use behind the chair, so you can apply these concepts to future projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,4,0\"\u003eLayout and bore mortises into the legs using simple, adaptable jigs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,5,0\"\u003eUnderstand proper grain orientation to ensure strong, long-lasting joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,6,0\"\u003eUse a shop-made kiln to explore how wood shrinkage and moisture movement can strengthen joinery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,7,0\"\u003ePractice steam bending back post and back slat components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,8,0\"\u003eAssemble the chair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,9,0\"\u003eWeave an envelope-pattern Danish paper cord seat, spending the entire last day focused on this immersive process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNotes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePre-turned parts:\u003c\/b\u003e All stool components will be provided as a kit with pre-turned legs, rungs, and seat rails.
