Join Neil to make this delightful little cabinet that can be either hung on a wall or positioned on a stand. This solid timber cabinet will comprise of a pair of hinged doors and 1 traditionally constructed drawer. Learn how to address issues regarding wood movement and complex carcase joinery, and how to fit hardware and fine drawer making. Please note, later in the year Neil will run a dedicated course to construct a special stand for this cabinet and/or the ‘Zazen’ collectors chest made earlier this year.

Saturdays 4, 11, 18, 25 Feb 3, 10, 17, 24, 31 March 2012 9am to 4pm – with 1 hour lunch break.

This introductory course is the first in a series of one term courses. In this first course the participants will learn, amongst other subjects, the safe use and maintenance of hand tools, wood technology and drawing. For a full list of subjects covered, please contact Neil or Pam.

For the first time, ESCA is about to embark into the serious business of taking keen, aspiring studio-furniture makers through the rigours of acquiring the necessary hand and machine skills while mentoring them towards developing an individual, ‘signature’ design aesthetic. This series of courses is aimed at the individual who wishes to learn everything about The Art of Fine Furniture, but who can’t afford to take an extended period of time off work. Typically, the series covers a similar, if not far less formal, curriculum to nationally accredited diploma or associate degree courses, albeit over a longer period of time.

Each series will run for 9 consecutive Saturdays during school terms. At this stage it is envisaged that ESCA will run at least 8 courses in the series with, perhaps, if the interest is there an extra 2 or 3 advanced courses. We will only run 3 courses in 2012 as we will be spending the last term in the USA teaching.
