About This Workshop
The ellipse is one of the most elegant curves available to the repertoire of the woodworker — or really anyone who builds. During this workshop, Scott will demonstrate how to make jigs to rout ellipses accurately, laminating wood to an elliptical shape, how to bandsaw ellipses and best of all, how to cut dovetails that will go into a curved drawer front. The techniques demonstrated in making this project are useful to any woodworker seeking to include ellipses or similar symmetrical curves in any work. Each student will end up with a great looking table.
