In this class, students will learn the art of woodworking and blend techniques of modern and historic instrument-making methods. Using wood lathes, metalworking tools, 3d scanners and selective laser sintering 3d printers. Student teams will first train to acquire the skills needed to use fabrication equipment. Each mixed team will then share their individual discipline's skills to help contribute to the creation of a completed musical instrument. Along the way, we'll explore the historical and cultural context of instrument making and the musical period.
