Building an Adjustable Back Chair

Here is some general information about the Adjustable Back Chair class.  The class is taught in our shop, 2139 Humboldt Street.  It’s a red shop building on the corner of Virginia and Humboldt and we are on the alley or West end.  You can park on the alley side.  Expect to begin on Monday about 8:50 am and work till around 5:30 through the week (Friday).   You’ll have your own bench station and can leave your things there for the week.  Join us for lunch if you’d like.  You are welcome to stay in the shop and eat lunch, too. There’s a microwave and a small refrigerator/freezer in the shop.  And a reverse osmosis water filter. 

Cost of the class is 1650 dollars. A deposit of 500 dollars secures your place in the class.  Send a check to Cass Teigs to 2139 Humboldt Street; Bellingham, WA 98225.  If you aren’t able to make the class we refund if we are able to refill the class.  We can arrange to have your upholstery done (ahead of time if you get us fabric or leather and live out of town).  Cost is somewhere around 350 dollars and requires 2.5 yards of fabric or most of one hide for the chair and ottoman set.  We can help with ordering hides. 

If Tom is involved in the class we usually have a dinner at Jennifer and his house Thursday night of the class.  Partners are welcome.  So are offspring.

Bring along your own eye and hearing protection and any layout tools you like to use.  We usually have a 16 foot tape measure, a 6 inch Starrett double square, a 6 inch Starrett rule, a ball point pen in our aprons. Everything but the dust mask is at the shop for you to use if you don’t have these things.  We also have tool aprons for you to use.  

If you have any questions you can call Tom at 360-393-7577
