SUMMARY:(SOLD OUT) Traditional Stool Making with Dylan McGuirk
DESCRIPTION:Over two days\, workshop participants will make a traditional 3 or 4 legged creepie stool using traditional chair making techniques and traditional hand tools.\nStarting with just a log and using only hand tools you will craft your very own beautiful traditional stool from some lovely locally sourced Ash wood. This is a great introductory course for anyone looking to learn traditional carpentry/woodwork or chair-making. Both for the complete beginner or the more experienced woodworker this will be a great workshop for you. \nSome of topics covered on this course will be wood selection\, traditional tool use and care. Splitting down and processing logs into parts for chair-making. Using a shave horse to shape stool parts. Wedged mortice and tenon joinery. We will do a small bit on tool sharpening\, wood drying and finishing.  Also as part of this workshop and if time permits we will do a walk and talk around the amazing vernacular furniture collection in the museum at Johnstown Castle. \nThis course will be run by Dylan McGuirk.
