NON LINEAR WOODWORKING // OBEY THE GRAIN - BOWLS + UTENSILS

Tracey Cheuvront and Kathrina Nellis  - Limit 12 guests

May 24-27 2019

East Durham NY 12423

Join us for a weekend exploring non-linear woodworking with Tracey Cheuvront and Kathrina Nellis. We were inspired when Tracey + Kathrina (@bastionhead) brought along a collection of beautiful organic shaped bowls and utensils to the farmhouse and we thought it would be great to learn to learn more about their non-linear approach. We will be using many hand and power tools..... the full spectrum from Arbortech power planes to hand-shaping on a shave-horse all focused on designing pieces that will have longevity due to how we obey the grain.

"The idea we keep coming back to is a spoon workshop, but really just using the making of a spoon to teach the various woods, tools, and methods in "non-linear" woodworking. The term non-linear is what we have come up with to describe our eclectic approach, involving both hand and power tools while mostly avoiding straight lines and joinery. Each student could leave with a couple utensils or a small set of various items." -Kathrina
