One on One Furniture Making Workshops

I’ve been a furniture maker for 38 years and have had my studio here in downtown, historic Chestertown for 26 years. Over the years, many visitors have remarked that I’m lucky to be able to do what I do for a living. I believe that underlying what they tell me is their own wish to make something with their hands, to spend time in a shop like mine, use the equipment and be able to say, “I made that.”
- Work one on one with furniture maker, designer, author and teacher Bob Ortiz.
- Immerse yourself in a fully equipped professional woodworking shop.
- Make a coffee table, end, hall or sofa table and take it home at the end of the session and know that YOU made it.
- Workshops last 3-6 days.
- Workshops individually tailored to your skill level.
I have added two new three day projects to the One on One Workshops. Click on the following link, New One on One Workshops , for photos and additional information about the new projects and details about the workshops in general.
