Basic Shaker Oval Boxes Workshop

1476 U.S. 9 : 1476 U.S. 9, Lake George, NY  12845

9:00 AM - 4:00 PM

One of the most iconic items of Shaker woodworking, nesting oval boxes share elegance, simplicity and functionality equally. Using carefully prepared thin strips of wood each participant will carve the "swallowtails" or "fingers" on one end before soaking them in a hot water bath to soften for bending. Copper tacks are installed to hold the oval hoop together before top and bottom boards are fit and held by wooden pegs. Each student will construct 3 nesting oval boxes from cherry wood in this two-day workshop. This class is open to all experience levels, no woodworking experience required!
