Build your own traditional shave horse, a pre-industrial woodworking tool that is part bench and part vise. Work independently with guidance from our instructional video and zoom meetups to construct a versatile, traditional tool that enables you to take the woodshop with you wherever you go.

This project will be used as a jumping off point for further online classes and projects with Sawtooth. The class is designed to be accessible for students working at home without major shop tools. Open to all skill levels, ages 18 and up.

We are offering an in-person version of this class with more instruction time. Follow the link below for more details.

Vogel, Josie

Josie Vogel is an artist, woodworker and educator, working with the skills and traditions of craft to explore sculptural forms in useful objects. While pursuing her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in sculpture at the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore, she fell in love with woodworking and has dedicated her career to the craft ever since. Whether in the form of sculpture, furniture, or small goods, her work prioritizes craft, utility, and the inherent beauty of the material. She creates objects that delight the eye and are meant to be touched, held, and put to good use. Through her work, Josie creates simple and elegant forms from a material that is alive with color, texture, luster and movement.

Josie makes her work in her home wood shop, surrounded by trees (for inspiration!) in Central North Carolina. Her work is available for purchase through Hudson’s Hill in Greensboro, NC and the Marta Blades Shop at Sawtooth in Winston-Salem. You can view her latest work on her website at josievogelstudio.com.

Josie is currently the Director of Woodworking at Sawtooth.
