Course
Swedish Style Lyre Benches
Course Overview
Don't need a trestle table? How about a bench or two? Students with woodworking experience wishing to try out this style but not ready to build a table may take this shorter class and make a Swedish 18th century style lyre-based bench. This class will focus on many of the same woodworking skills and techniques as described for the lyre trestle table class such as: proper use of hand tools, proper sharpening, layout, making of glueless draw-bored mortice and tenons and options for finishing. You will leave the class having a better sense of how to approach and complete similar furniture in the home shop. Instructor will have some tools for use by students.
