Cabinetry Basics - doors and Drawer Fronts


  • Hammerstone: Carpentry for Women 3285 Jacksonville Rd. Trumansburg, NY (map)

Who is this class for:
This course is open to women-identifying and non-binary folx as well as trans men.

Prerequisite: While this course has no explicit prerequisite, we highly recommend that students attend either our 2-Day Basic Carpentry Skills, Build a Bookcase, Build a Box, Build an Adirondack Chair course or an equivalent before participating.  In Cabinetry Basics courses we review the critical content covered in these courses, but at a faster pace.

Description: 
The craft of cabinetmaking is rooted in fine woodworking, but requires more of a production mentality.  Beyond building the carcasses and doors, the appearance of most cabinets is determined by the doors and drawer fronts.  Learning to build a frame and panel door is a useful skill for cabinetmaking and furniture making alike.
In this class we will use a variety of woodworking tools to build the doors and drawer fronts for the cabinets built in class the previous week.

HOW TO CHOOSE A PAYMENT >

  • I consider myself middle income/wealth. Paying this price may be a sacrifice, but I can find the resources to do so. This is the full cost of running a course including paying our teachers a fair wage, covering insurance, maintaining tools and facilities, managing administration, and supporting our family.

  • I consider myself low-income/low-wealth. I cannot access this course without financial help.

  • I consider myself low-middle income/wealth. Paying full price for this course presents somewhat of a financial hardship.

  • I consider myself upper-middle income/wealth. I would like to make a donation on top of the full price of the course in order to help subsidize access for those who cannot pay the full tuition.

  • I have the resources to make a substantial donation to ensure that these classes remain accessible to people of all income/wealth levels.
