Intro to Cabinetmaking

In this all level woodworking class students will learn how to design and build a wall hanging cabinet. Students will use the table saw, miter saw, drill press, hand drills, biscuit jointer and a pocket screw jig. We’ll cover how to design, create a cut-list, machine and assemble a cabinet with a door. You’ll walk away with your own 18” wide x 24” tall x 12” deep cabinet! No prior woodworking experience necessary! Material cost is $50, and can be paid in person the day of class. Tools will be provided. Class will take place on Saturday October 17th, from 9 AM - 4 PM with a 30 minute break for lunch. Taught by Will Cowart @wkcwoodworks Will Cowart has been hanging around wood shops since he was a little kid by way of his Dad and Grandpa's shops. He took an opportunity to work as a cabinetmaker in 2016 and hasn't looked back. Working alongside some of the best cabinet makers in the Chicagoland area and more recently in the Triangle, Will honed his skills and gained the understanding of proper furniture and millwork construction. Moving to North Carolina 2018, Will continues to create custom furniture and millwork in his shop just outside of downtown Durham, NC.
