Introduction to Inlay with Steve Latta

Inlay is a technique missing from many folks’ arsenals of skillsets.  A little bit of inlay can go a long way in taking a casual piece to something far more formal and sophisticated- or it can just make it more interesting and fun.  In this hands on class, nationally recognized furniture maker and inlay expert, Steve Latta, will present an overview of both traditional and contemporary practices, using both hand and power tools. This is a hands on class so you will have plenty of opportunity to practice with both techniques.  You’ll walk away with an understanding of traditional stringing and modern day pattern work with the ability to add rich accents to your work, be it a table top, drawer front or a simple decorative panel. This is a great class if you have never done any inlay but even if you have been working and experimenting on your own you owe it to yourself to study with one of the best instructors in the country. Sign up today- You do not want to miss this opportunity. Some specific tools are suggested and the list is in the link below.
