This Old Wood: eLetter: Video - Michael Cullen's Bandsawn Boxes

Saturday, November 10, 2018

Hello, Reclaimed !

Watch as Michael Cullen shows you how to build his two-walled bandsawn boxes. They are quick to make, requiring no measuring, no joinery, and almost no planning. This is an excerpt from Michael's video workshop where he shows you in exacting detail how to make three of his boxes.

Michael will be a featured instructor at Fine Woodworking HANDS ON, February 1-3 in Tampa, Florida. In his class you’ll explore the art of box making in a very creative way with an inspirational workshop that focuses on exploring ideas that fall outside the box. Emphasis will be on using the bandsaw to shape and sculpt boxes with pleasing curves, but the class is also a chance to explore unusual, fun, or even zany shapes. The workshop will also show how to add patterns, texture, and colors to the surfaces of the boxes.
