Within the last few years, the dutch tool chest has become more and more popular. Leaders in the woodworking industry like Christopher Schwarz have popularized this chest through articles and classes. We offer a class for the Dutch tool chest that will start on Friday night and follow with a full day Saturday and finish on Sunday. This class is a hand tool workout utilizing hand chisels, hand planes, hand router planes, hammers with cut nails, hand saws and much more. Each student will work out of their own Japanese tool chest with the needed Lie Nielsen chisels, and planes. Each student taking the class has the option to purchase the kit they used at a reduced cost as well. Hand cut dove tails, hand cut dado’s, hand planed tongue and groove oak back are just some of the processes. Each student will continue their learning in these areas and leave with a Dutch tool chest ready to personalize with their own interiors and tools as they see fit. Everything is provided including refreshments and lunch on Saturday and Sunday. All materials and use of tools are included. Come build an heirloom quality piece to be shared a lifetime.
