Service Description

Description: In this class, you will build an epoxy river charcuterie board, about ¾” x 9” x 18”. In the first class, you will mill the slab pieces, build a frame, position slab pieces in the frame. In the second class, you’ll mix the epoxy, tint it, and fill the frame with the resin. After a week of curing, in the 3rd class, you will break away the frame, flatten the board, sand it, add handles, and polish it. Level: Students must have taken at least one previous ACWA class, and feel comfortable using the table saw, bandsaw, jointer, and planer. Materials: I can provide birch live-edge slabs at a nominal cost TBA. If you’d like to use some other wood, you will need to provide it. Cost: $100 materials (epoxy is expensive!). $20 shop fee. There is no instructor fee. Instructor: Marc Brown, marc@chezbrown.org Bio: After a career building software systems using Java, SQL, and Python, I now build cool stuff using wood. What used to be “bugs” are now “creative opportunities.” My focus is on student safety, and limiting the number of creative opportunities that students create for themselves each class.
