Slab Table Workshop

$725.00

This weekly class will walk you through all the steps involved in creating a finished and functional coffee table or bench-sized piece with a live edge slab top and staked wooden legs. All tools and materials will be provided. Students are encouraged to bring and use their own tools if they have them - we will be happy to help get them up and running smoothly. 

We have American Beech and Sassafras live-edge slabs available for this class and will be providing leg stock in a complimentary wood. 

Class duration will be four 3 hour sessions held Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6-9pm.

The first session of this class will run on the following dates:

  • Tuesday 2/16/23

  • Thursday 2/21/23

  • Tuesday 2/23/23

  • Thursday 2/28/23

**Please email us to inquire about custom slab options outside of our current prepped stock**

The slabs will be flattened on a cnc to begin with. From there we will start on a journey of learning as we:

  • Choose the best “show” face for the top

  • Address and stabilize surface features like cracks, knots, and bark inclusions

  • Install optional inlays like butterflies

  • Fare in live edges for a pleasing and comfortable shape

  • Cut and shape our legs

  • Measure, mark, and cut joinery for the legs

  • Smoothing all surfaces in preparation for finishing

  • Choose and apply a topcoat for a durable and fantastic looking finish

  • Problem solve any and all issues along the way!
