Come make hinoki cutting boards!

Hope you all are well, and hope to see you tomorrow, Thursday the 11th, from 6-8 pm at our monthly meetup!

We have some new classes ready for enrollment, including:

• Kannashiage (hand plane finishing) class and hinoki cutting board making - this class is comprised of two components! In the morning learn how to expertly sharpen your plane blades to the point they can be used to finish a project. In the afternoon, you can put all that sharpness to good use finishing your very own hinoki (Japanese Cypress) cutting board to take home with you! Sign up for one or both parts at the links above, and check out Nolan-sensei's website for more information here. Participants are also offered a discount on Nihonsan's vintage Japanese kitchen knives and magnetic saya.
