For the finest drawer construction, you need precision, patience and skills. We can provide you with techniques that will enable you to build sweet running drawers. Drawer construction is, after all, simply box construction. Learn drawer joinery, lay-out strategies and proportioning systems, drawer fitting techniques and how to create your own pulls from wood and metal. This class will improve and refine your building and drawer making skills using a mixture of hand and power tools.
