Japanese joinery is an art that has been perfected over millennia. The oldest wooden structure in the world is a Buddhist temple in the Nara Prefecture built in 607 AD using 2000 year-old cypress. Without the aid of hardware, these daiku managed to construct beautiful buildings using literally thousands of different joints. Indeed, there are so many joints, often immensely intricate, that most of them do not have a direct translation from Japanese. To this day, as a result of demolition, repair, or relocation, people are still discovering new joints that were once closely guarded family secrets. In this class, students will be introduced to the art of Japanese joinery by constructing a dovetailed lap joint, or koshikake-ari-tsugi. This splicing joint is the combination of two common joints, known in the West as the dovetail and lap joints. Understanding the concepts introduced in this class will establish a firm foundation on which students can expand their skillset into more advanced Japanese joints.
This class is designed for beginners who want to learn how to safely use the core tools of the wood shop. During the first half of the class, we will focus on how to properly flatten and size lumber using the table saw, jointer, and planer. Once the material is flat and square, we will discuss glue up methods as we join the material to create a cutting board. The second half of the class will focus on safely using the router and router table to shape the board and apply a decorative edge. Students will leave with a completed project and a great foundation for starting their woodworking journey!
