This blog is dedicated to sharing the concept that our hands are essential to learning- that we engage the world and its wonders, sensing and creating primarily through the agency of our hands. We abandon our children to education in boredom and intellectual escapism by failing to engage their hands in learning and making.

trial fit
As you can see in the photo above, the tenons and mortises holding the table are formed, and I have done a trial assembly just to check the look. I will take the table apart for sanding prior to gluing the joints. I know there will be changes in the next tables, and I see this as the beginning of a series that will evolve over time, just as this particular piece is one that incorporates several of my earlier investigations in design and technique. The woods used are black walnut and spalted fiddleback soft maple.
