The Round Table Project
Level: Beginner to Intermediate
Duration: 1 Day (6–7 hours with breaks)
Description:
Join us for a full-day workshop where you'll craft a beautiful round side table using a combination of hand tools and routers. Designed for beginners and intermediate makers, this class is a perfect introduction to furniture building with a focus on shaping, joinery, and finishing.
Working with pine timber, you’ll learn how to:
Select and prepare materials for tabletop and legs
Cut and shape a round tabletop using a router jig
Use hand tools for smoothing, edge detailing, and joinery
Assemble and level legs for a sturdy, balanced build
Sand and finish your table for a professional look
Experiment with wax polishing to apply a lasting protection to your project
By the end of the day, you will leave with a fully finished round side table, crafted by you and ready to take home.
What’s included:
All materials required for each project.
Appropriate PPE i.e. masks, safety glasses, ear defenders and the knowledge and reassurance that our classes are fully insured.
Ample free parking
Complimentary tea, coffee and biscuits
What you need to bring:
Please wear sensible (sturdy) shoes and comfortable workshop clothing, that you don’t mind getting dusty
Feel free to bring a Packed lunch, but there are also shops nearby
Bonus Feature:
You’ll also have the opportunity to personalise your table with a custom engraving using the Shaper Origin—a handheld CNC machine - that allows for precise, creative detailing into the table top.
