Stickley Plant Stand

The five-day Stickley Plant Stand class begins with full-scale shop drawings. You’ll then jump into the mortise-and-tenon joinery to create a piece to last generations.

 

Students need to supply one 8″ X 8″ or 10″ X 10″ ceramic tile.

 

Some of the skills learned in the Stickley Plant Stand class are:

• How to design an elegant, yet simple, piece
• Traditional joinery for strength and stability

Materials are not included in the class fee. Lumber for this project may be purchased through us or on your own and shipped to our shop at least four weeks prior to the class.

Each student should supply his, or her, own:

• Safety glasses and hearing protection
• Combination or machinist square
• Bevel gauge
• Bench chisels
• Carvers mallet
• Dovetail saw
• Marking gauge
• Smooth plane or jack plane
• Block plane
• Tape measure or folding rule

If you do not have the tools on the list, don’t panic; there are plenty of tools for your use in class.
