This is the ultimate woodworking class experience. Imagine being immersed into a total woodworking experience that will change the way you do woodworking forever.
Whether you need to build that rocker for rocking your first baby or grand baby, the family, yourself or to start a career as a chair maker I will help you jump start your dream. This is a "bucket list" project that will set you apart from all the "square" projects and launch you into a world of curves, lines and undulating surfaces. Learn to sculpt lines that will pop out and move the observers eyes.
The classes are scheduled for up to 6 students to build their chair over seven days from prepared walnut stock which is included in the $1800 class tuition. The rocker will be built from my patterns. The student should have experience with a bandsaw, table saw and router. The Festool RAS 115 grinder and various hand tools will be used to shape the pieces. The student will laminate the rockers on a form. The chair will require final shaping, sanding and finishing when they return to their home shop. The rocker will be made transportable at the end of the class for the trip home.
The classes are held in my new studio and school in Columbus, Georgia. The address is 3021 Sandy Parkway Suite D/ Columbus, GA 31909
The Build Your Maloof Inspired Rocker with Charles Brock class will begin at 9AM EST. We will work until 6PM daily. On the final day the goal will be to prepare you to transport your rocker home for finishing. The cost for the class is $1800 including wood (walnut) and other materials for the project. The maximum class size is 5 woodworkers due to the teacher (with assistant)/ pupil ratio necessary for your success. When the class is full a waiting list will be used in case of cancellations.
