Curso sencillo, pero tal vez en exceso, siento que la información y técnicas están muy limitadas, sería bueno que hicieran otro curso explorando más las posibilidades del uso de este material en el mobiliario.

Soy carpintero , este oficio que se están perdiendo las técnicas , la parte industrial de muebles se esta comiendo la parte del arte de la carpintería ,las placas compuestas diferentes maderas y materiales no madera. esto a dejado un lado la belleza de este oficio. en este curso enseña como realizar las aplicaciones de esterilla trenzada o rejilla trenzada, los artesanos que fabrican esta esterilla trenzada todavía hay en Chile y España pero cada vez mas escasos este arte.

El porcentaje de tiempo dedicado a la " aplicación de rejilla trenzada" muestras y desafíos, alternativas e ideas son muy escasas.Los otros cursos que he tomado están en un 90% enfocados al objetivo. Muchas oportunidades para mejorar este curso.
