Want to learn how? Then join me at the John C. Campbell Folk School on 5-7 July for <a href=\"https:\/\/classes.folkschool.org\/class_details.aspx?pk=21612\">Making Without Measuring: A Dovetailed Flag Box<\/a>. Using a few basic tools, I will show you how to create a full-scale drawing which we will then use throughout the building process.<\/p>\n<p>The class title also mentions dovetails. Typically, we encounter dovetails when perpendicular members meet, think drawers or boxes. In the United States, the flag is folded into a triangular shape. So, how are we going to handle this? (Hint: think isosceles triangle, which is not necessarily a right-triangle.) Through a change in perspective. I will guide you through this process.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, we will develop new skills and get to use some cool hand tools! <a href=\"https:\/\/classes.folkschool.org\/class_details.aspx?pk=21612\">Register here<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jleko.com\/there\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_6549.jpg?resize=584%2C438&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2086\" width=\"584\" height=\"438\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jleko.com\/there\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_6549.jpg?w=3264&amp;ssl=1 3264w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jleko.com\/there\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_6549.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jleko.com\/there\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_6549.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jleko.com\/there\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_6549.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jleko.com\/there\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_6549.jpg?resize=400%2C300&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jleko.com\/there\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_6549.jpg?w=1168&amp;ssl=1 1168w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jleko.com\/there\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_6549.jpg?w=1752&amp;ssl=1 1752w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is completely possible to make a piece of furniture without using a ruler, or tape measure!
