Mike
Farrington, is a professional woodworker in the Denver Colorado area. He
is honored to share his woodworking skills with the Woodworkers Club of
Houston. In the presentation he shared the process for making Kumiko
panels. This included making the needed grid-work, as well as the
various angle cuts to complete the pattern. He also showed how to cut
and fit the tiny mortise and tenon joinery needed to make a Japanese
inspired lantern. With these two skills you could make a lantern of your
own. Then he moved on to showing how these techniques can be applied to
larger scale projects. If he were to boil this presentation down, it
would be a study in hand tool accuracy and efficiency. Mike believes if
you learn the skills necessary for Kumiko, all your future furniture and
woodworking projects can benefit.
