Home»Fine Furniture and Woodworking Classes

Fine Furniture and Woodworking classes taught by Paul Jacobs are available year-round in his North Sacramento, California studio.  The studio includes a full compliment of industrial machinery and bench space for up to two hands-on learners at a time.  The studio is also climate controlled, creating a comfortable and relaxed learning environment.

Paul draws on his 30 years of woodworking experience in fine furniture and commercial cabinetry to customize instruction for every learner regardless of their experience level.  All lessons are tailored to the individual learner, empowering them to return to their home shops and apply the skills they have learned.  Paul has worked in all furniture styles and has expert knowledge of traditional and contemporary methods of work and joinery.

With a maximum class size of two, there is always plenty of time for questions and individual attention.

In addition to the classes offered below, custom classes can be tailored to meet any learner's needs.  If there is a topic you would like instruction in, please email Paul directly through the Contact page here, or by phone at 916-921-9151.
