Kumiko is a type of traditional Japanese woodworking used to create beautiful shoji screens. Mastering the art of kumiko takes patience and excellent hand tool skills. But modern woodworking tools and some clever jigs help make basic kumiko accessible to all of us. In this class, you will refine your chisel skills and use a simple wooden jig to cut out the small parts needed to assemble a beautiful kumiko panel which is yours to take. Jigs are available for purchase if you wish to continue making kumiko. Project Description: Students will construct a panel consisting of three beautiful asa-no-ha (hemp leaf) patterns surrounded by a border. Students under 18 may attend with parental permission
