***This class is not currently being offered. Click here if you want us to consider offering it again in the future. Come spend a day with Joshua Farnsworth building a traditional wedged barn ladder. This is a solid ladder! Students will learn to use various layout tools to space out the ladder rungs, according to their preference (and according to safety standards). Mortises will be bored on a drill press (for accuracy), and students will make wooden wedges and learn how to wedge the tenon rungs for a solid ladder that will last for years. Finally, students will spend any remaining time refining the ladder & easing the sharp edges with block planes and rasps. This ladder will look and function perfectly in your barn or your apartment!
