# Event Details - **Event Name**: Anarchist's Tool Chest - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 05 Oct, 2026 at 09:00 am – Fri, 09 Oct, 2026 at 05:00 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: Join Megan Fitzpatrick in this 5- day class covering how to build an Anarchist's Tool Chest.About this EventClass Description:Aside from a workbench, a sturdy tool chest is one of the most important things to have in your shop. It organizes and protects your tools from damage, rust and loss. While many woodworkers have attempted to improve upon the traditional chest design that emerged 300 years ago, the old form has remained the absolute best way to keep the most tools in the smallest space. And if you need a slightly smaller footprint for your chest, you’re in luck. In this class, you can choose between making a full-size chest (25-3/4” tall, 24” front to back, 40-1/4” long) or a traveling version that will fit into the back of a car or truck (14-1/2” high, 19-1/2” front to back, 39-1/2” long). The full-size chest will hold a complete set of the hand tools typically used for furniture work; the travel size chest will hold most of them.In this five-day class you will build the shell of your own traditional tool chest using hand tools and techniques. This is an excellent first project for a new hand-tool woodworker – especially if you want to get good at dovetails! Skills you will learn in this class include:• Traditional through-dovetail joinery• Cutting basic mouldings by hand• Fitting mouldings to casework• Loose-tenon joineryBy the end of class you will have all the skills you need to complete the interior of the chest at your workshop at home, whether you want to dovetailed tills or simple rabbeted and nailed tills.ATC Tool List (the ones you need to build it – not all the stuff you’d want to put in it…)Smoothing planeJack planeMarking or cutting gaugeMarking knife.05 or .03 mechanical pencilDividers (2 pair if you’ve got ‘em)12” combo squareDovetail marking gauge or sliding bevelDovetail sawChisels ½” and 3/8”MalletRabbeting plane, moving fillister or a large shoulder planeHammer and nail setCoping saw with extra blades (I recommend Pegas blades)3/16” Beading planeAnd any other tools you just can’t bear to be without.

And don't worry if you don't have some of the more esoteric tools – I'm happy to share my beading plane. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/berea/anarchists-tool-chest/100001628760559679 - **Event Categories**: Workshops - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 2200, max: 2200, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Berea - **state**: KY - **country**: United States - **location**: The Woodworking School at Pine Croft - **lat**: 37.56252599999999 - **long**: -84.251629 - **full address**: The Woodworking School at Pine Croft, 1865 Big Hill Road, Berea, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Anarchist's Tool Chest - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/6a64ad2b2c618ec26ee1342cb198f659808f81bbd14e030024832b90eae85a0f-rimg-w1200-h1055-dc292c36-gmir.jpg?v=1757253499 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Anarchist's Tool Chest being held? - **A:** Anarchist's Tool Chest takes place on Mon, 05 Oct, 2026 at 09:00 am to Fri, 09 Oct, 2026 at 05:00 pm at The Woodworking School at Pine Croft, 1865 Big Hill Road, Berea, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Anarchist's Tool Chest? - **A:** Tickets for Anarchist's Tool Chest are priced at USD 2,200 per person.

We believe that craft can both preserve traditions and beauty – and that craft can act as a counterbalance to a disposable and consumer-reliant world. Making is essential to us. We are excited to share a place where students can grow in their skills and fulfill their creative pursuits. Providing opportunities to work with leading instructors who come from diverse backgrounds and have different woodworking perspectives. All are welcome to attend" } ] } ] ```
