The Miracle of Wood with Dan Peper
From root to leaf, man has found a multitude ways to use trees. This class is designed to give students an appreciation for the miracle we call wood. Class will include a hike through the woods, a tactile exploration of many native woods, and an introduction to the basic tools used in hand woodworking. How to choose the appropriate wood for a given project will be covered. Students will go home with samples of native woods, a bibliography of woodworking information and a “reverence for wood”* *(taken from the title of Eric Sloane’s incredible book.)
