A woodworker needs a place to store their hand tools, and even better if those tools can travel with them. Build your own strong, lightweight traveling tool chest from Sitka spruce using hand-cut dovetail joints in this hands-on course. Through expert instruction and guided practice, strengthen your project planning skills, build confidence with both hand and power tools, learn the fundamentals of hand-cut dovetail joinery, and leave with a tool chest that will serve you for years to come.

Tuition includes $275 materials/lab fee.
