Roy Underhill has just opened registration at The Woodwright’s School for the first batch of classes in 2013.
I’m teaching there twice in 2013. Details:
The Anarchist’s Tool Chest, Aug. 26-30.
Note that this class is full. You can sign up for the waiting list. I recommend doing that. People from the waiting list always get into the class.
Make a Six-board Chest, Oct. 12-14, 2013.
I think this is going to be the oddest class I’ve ever taught. The members of the class and I will all be building the same project, but the chest’s particular design will be guided by the material and tools at hand – plus a good dose of history and geomety I might add.
Hope you can join us in Pittsboro in 2013. And be sure to check out the other classes that Roy has listed on the site. Peter Follansbee has a cool class on a joint stool. Make a name stamp with Peter Ross. And of course, the classics: Mystery Mallet with Roy, Handsaw Sharpening with Bill Anderson, and Carving with Mary May.

Anarchist Tool Chest class is already full the morning after registration opened.
“With Mallets Towards None”
Sounds like another great school year.
One day I will get there.
I have been waiting on the Mary May Intro Class. Not counting my registration there are only 3 left.
What size nails do you use for the chest? Those look huge.
I strongly suspect they are Tremont cut nails. http://www.tremontnail.com/catalog.htm
6d wrought head nails from Tremont
Is that General Finishes milk paint? Coastal Blue maybe?
Chris,
To you and your family, Happy Thanksgiving.
