Openings in a Carved Box class

May at Galbert's shop, Berwick ME

here’s your notice - there’s some openings in my 2nd carved box class at Pete Galbert’s shop in Berwick, ME. May 25-30, 2025.

We won’t get to painting, but that box is the sort of thing we produce in the class. They’re about 7” high, 14” x 24”. Each student chooses their own pattern(s) after a couple of days of practice. The wood is quartersawn red oak for the box parts - white pine lids & bottoms. Handmade iron nails secure the bottom and the lid’s cleats that form the hinge.

Each time I teach this, I’m astounded at the students’ work. It’ll be a blast. This is the link, disregard that its title is about making a chair…

Small class size, lots of details…and this time we’ll be in Pete’s new shop - can’t wait. See you there?
