Box making course tracksaw/domino induction Monday 19th June

#1

I am holding the second box making course / domino/festool induction tomorrow Monday 19th June

You will learn to use the tracksaw to dimension sheet goods materials, use the mft (multifunction table) fence system to
Make accurate and repeatable cuts,

The domino jointing system is a very accurate mortising machine system along with loose tenons that can be used in all forms of furniture making.
Think biscuit joiner/ dowels on steroids!!

After the course you will be able to make a box, anything from a small trinket box right up to a kitchen cabinet, speaker cabinets, wardrobe or a full wall tv/bookcase cabinet the only limit is your space and imagination.

It will run from 18:00 to 22:00

Bring any designs you have and I will be happy to discuss them.

Fee £20
Includes materials and inductions on the tracksaw and the domino machine.
Maximum 6 members
You must have done the basic wood induction!

It’s short notice so unlikely to be full but first six to reply are on

Come along to the Open Evening on Wednesday 28th, 7pm (every second Wednesday). Check the place out, meet some people, and decide if you’d like to become a member. Most machines require an induction to use them safely, inductions are very simple and just teach you how to use them safely so you don’t injure yourself or others, and to use the equipment properly. This thread is about a course for members who have already done the basic woodshop induction, and will teach you how to use the equipment to make something functional with it.

Hi Kleiton,

If you’re interested in becoming a member, here’s our little pre-membership survey. As Dan mentioned, the Open Evening is also a great way to see the Makerspace and you will get a scenic tour. :partying_face:
