Timber Frame Table

A table is never just a table.

Many woodworking courses teach you how to build a project. This course uses a project to teach something much deeper: how to think through complex work.

Over more than 30 lessons, Brian walks through the complete process of building the Boggs Timber Frame Table—from stock selection and milling to joinery, curved structural components, veneering, assembly, and final detailing. Along the way, he explains not just what to do, but why each decision matters.

The table is the vehicle. The real subject is precision, workflow, sequencing, problem solving, and the accumulated judgment that comes from four decades of designing and building furniture.

Student Testimonial

Eric

“The course was full of eye-openers for me.

The unique bandsaw jigs and fixtures Brian uses to achieve repeatable, accurate cuts changed the way I think about setup and workflow.

I was particularly impressed by the process for making wide bandsawn veneers without needing to sand each one individually with a wide belt sander. The veneering and glue-up techniques were equally valuable, especially learning how to achieve consistent results without relying on a vacuum press.

Even the discussion of glue application made me rethink techniques I had rarely given much thought to before.”

What You’ll Learn

In the course, Brian goes deep into topics including:

  • Designing and building curved structural components that are strong, stable, and elegant.
  • Developing and using fixtures and jigs that improve accuracy, safety, and repeatability.
  • Using veneered cores intentionally—not as a shortcut, but as a structural and aesthetic choice.
  • Planning joinery so complex assemblies come together without stress or force.
  • Managing wood movement and tolerance in large, interdependent parts.
  • Understanding how small errors accumulate and how to prevent them before they occur.
  • Developing maturity at the bench—knowing when precision matters and when restraint matters more.

Who This Course Is For

This course is designed for intermediate to advanced woodworkers who:

  • Have a reasonably well-equipped shop.
  • Want to improve their accuracy and confidence when working with machines, jigs, and fixtures.
  • Are interested in learning how to design and build curved structural components.
  • Want to understand precision joinery, complex assemblies, and the workflows that support them.
  • Value understanding why a process works, not just how to follow steps.
  • Want to develop the judgment and decision-making skills that lead to consistently excellent work.

Who This Course Is Not For

This course may not be the best fit for those looking for:

  • A quick weekend project.
  • Pre-milled parts or shortcuts.
  • Step-by-step instructions without understanding the reasoning behind them.
  • Beginner-level woodworking instruction.

The emphasis is on understanding the work from the ground up and developing skills that transfer far beyond a single table.

Why This Course Exists

Over the years, many students have asked Brian why his work appears so effortless. The answer is not talent. It is systems.

The Timber Frame Table brings together many of the ideas Brian has developed over forty years of furniture making: fixture design, workflow planning, problem prevention, joinery sequencing, and understanding which details matter most.

The goal of the course is not simply to teach a table. It is to teach a way of working.

Students who complete the course leave with much more than a piece of furniture. They gain tools for approaching future projects with greater confidence, clarity, and precision.
