Students will bring several of their chisels and or planes to the class. One or two will be selected to use in class by the Instructor. The knowledge and skills acquired in this class will allow the student to return home and practice and refine the technique developed in the 3 hour class.

If any of these fit you then you are looking in the right place. In this two-evening class you will be learning how to use epoxy, the importance of prep work when using epoxy, and having fun along the way. You will be making an 18” x 12” charcuterie board to take home and show off or give as a gift! You will be using a table saw, planer, router table, and sanders to accomplish this task. We can’t wait to have you in this class and teach you what you want to learn about epoxy. (The wood choice is based on the instructor’s hardwood slab availability) (you will have a huge variety of choice for epoxy color)

Building An Electric Guitar

Part 1: Friday, December 6, 9 AM - 6 PM

Part 2: Saturday, December 7, 9 AM - 6 PM

Part 3: Sunday, December 8, 9 AM - 6 PM

CLS1143 - This is a great opportunity to make a Tele-Type Guitar for yourself or give the class as a gift for someone that loves to play guitars! This class is designed to accommodate the beginner/intermediate woodworker in building their own electric guitar learning basic woodworking techniques in the process. The process will be broken down in bite sized tasks that enable the student to get a clear understanding of the various steps in making an electric guitar. This is not a kit guitar! You are building it from scratch! You will learn how to make a body, hand carve a neck, install a truss rod and install the fret board after you install frets and slot a nut. Finally, you will learn how to wire it up (CTS Pots and Switchcraft Output Jack) and to properly setup a guitar to play perfectly for you. Each guitar will be completed before leaving the class, however, painting/finishing the guitar will be left to the student to complete after the class at home. Finishing techniques will be discussed to provide guidance and Ed will be available to answer questions after the class. Ed is a professional guitar maker, with vast experience making both acoustic and electric guitars. Sign up and make your own guitar!
