Come create your very own Spiral Sprout Box! This octagonal, lidded box is topped with a bundle of bentwood spirals. During the class we will cover box design and function, joinery with geometry (it’s fun, I promise), making a captured panel bottom and lid, wood bending using a hot pipe, creating a tiny wedged tenon, and fine tuning the fit of a split-lid box. This small project is packed with an array of techniques and fun details to make it your own!
