For the last two weeks the Impractical Studies students have been making planes – a smoother, jointer, and a coopering plane. They also started this week on edge jointing and shaping the door of their Wabi Sabi exercise – a small wall hung cabinet with a coopered door.
John has been making awesome progress on his Composing piece, a cabinet out of spalted Western Maple with two coopered doors. This week he finished dowelling his carcass, ran grooves for his partitions and rabbets on the sides of the cabinet.
