Audrey Bell recently gave an upholstery demo to Associate Professor Critz Campbell’s Furniture Making class. 

About the course:
The chair-making class revolves around bent laminations. Students employ skateboard-decking veneer in learning bent lamination techniques to create a batch of curved seats and backs. They find individual solutions for employing this common curved, laminated element. Students are encouraged to explore the dynamic of communal and individual problem solving and celebrate the variety of answers found. Skills covered include drafting, bent lamination, vacuum pressing, wood selection, milling, joinery and finishing.
