About the event

During the two day course students will make an urban lumber live edge slab table, bench or floating shelf from a selection of slab lumber we have available from a local nonprofit mill called Lumber Cycle. They are based in Ramona, CA and work with arborists, property owners and county officials to harvest downed and removed trees, milling them into affordable live edge slabs for local artisans to create beautiful furniture from. Typical species include Torrey Pine, Coastal Live Oak, Eucalyptus, Redwood, Cedar, Ash, California Pepper and many more. The slabs are selected on a first come basis based on sign up order but it may be possible to get specific species if it’s been prearranged with the instructor and it’s available from another supplier.

Days and Hours:

The course will run from 10am until 4pm Saturday and Sunday.

Students must register with Aztec Woodworking in advance. Fees must be paid at the time of registration. The minimum number of students per workshop is three; the maximum number of students is five. Students will elect at the time of registration to build either a table, bench or floating shelf. Instructor will supply tools, tape measures, squares, pencils, glue, sanding supplies, and finish etc.

Cost:

The fee for the course not including wood is $375 to be paid to Aztec Woodworking directly. The urban lumber slab prices vary depending on the size/ thickness and variety of wood you select but total class price will be in the $450-$550 range typically. The selection of lumber varies so you will have to check with the instructor prior to class for lumber availability and payment details. If you wish to purchase and bring your own slab/lumber that is also an option.
