About this Event
Join us for this mid-summer Date Night and learn a new skill & learn to use the simple block plane!
In this modern world of whining and growling power tools, hand planes are often relegated to the shelf or to occasionally clean up a rough edge. Because of our reliance on power tools, we may have never taken the time to understand how planes work and more importantly how well they can work.
The class will cover setting up the plane; sharpening; tuning; and using the plane for edge jointing, planning end grain, and surfacing. You will leave class with a pair of chopsticks handmade by you using the simple block plane.
For the best experience but certainly not required, we recommend bringing a hand plane of your own, so you can tune it up and get hands on training.
