Delve into the world of inlays, starting with the basics of the hammer and chisel we will learn and practice the skills of cutting and setting one piece of wood into another. Using hand tools and machines we will create a beautiful, flawless surface where a knot hole once lived or bridge the gap of a check with an arikata inlay. The instructor will provide complex cuts of wood that present unique challenges to be solved with inlay, and students can expect to walk away with a few unique cutting boards that look more like paintings than chopping blocks. The class is open to students ages 14 and up. Masks and social distancing are required in this and all Sawtooth classes.
A Material fee of 25$ will be due to the instructor upon the first meeting of the class.

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.
