Bowl Carving Course - Full day

Absolutely fantastic day once again! Thank you Ben for running the day and BTC for running these courses. I can’t wait to book another ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great day

Really enjoyable course with a very friendly and welcoming environment

An enjoyable - if full-on day led by Hugh. Starting with a split log and ending up with a carved bowl. Every stage clearly explained and demonstrated. Sharp tools and other equipment made available as required and a friendly, collaborative environment maintained throughout. The setting is pretty rustic, but the large frame tent (Presumably ex military?) was an ample size for the small group of us to all work in and provided reasonable shelter against the strong wind and rain of the day. In practice it was a struggle to complete all stages before the light went, so many people, me included will probably be finishing up their bowls at some future date in home workshops or similar - however, one can hardly blame the limited daylight hours on the organisers, December has short days, deal with it! Plus I understand that plans are in place to instal solar power shortly so that lighting will improve. Overall a great and enjoyable experience, both well thought out and delivered.

A really full and interesting day. Ben and Hugh made everyone welcome and provided excellent instruction in the art of bowl carving. Not quite a finished article at the end of the day but definitely bowl-like and completable at home. Lovely lunch broke up the day and got back home tired but happy with the day.

What a fantastic day! Thank you Ben and Hugh for being such good teachers and making everyone feel so relaxed. I came away with a bowl I was really pleased with thanks to you both! Will spread the word. Kind Regards Alan

Fantastic day, the guy's were great, really enjoyable and interesting course, well worth the money

Wow! What a fabulous day! It was very focussed but relaxed. A lovely mindful day with something to take home at the end! The instruction from Ben and Hugh was brilliant. They were incredibly patient, hugely knowledgeable and always positive and encouraging. As a result, we all achieved and produced fantastic wooden bowls in a day! I have learnt so much from these guys and am now inspired to do more green wood work! Plus, we had a delicious lunch - result! Bravo guys - it was outstanding!
