This course was fabulous and left me wanting to carve more bowls (which i have since managed to do!). We began with half a 'green' log and were taught how to use gouges, axes and adzes to turn the log in to a bowl using traditional green woodworking methods. The tutor was very patient, friendly and relaxed and took you through each stage of the process step by step. The workshop is a great space within Stepney City Farm and there's a cafe on site, although coffee / tea and biscuits were provided on the course.
I was so very pleased with my bowl and would highly recommend this course.

A day carving my first bowl taught me so many new woodworking skills earlier this year. A really satisfying project and now I have a beautiful birch wood bowl that is much admired at home.
The teaching was methodical, with step by step instructions using new tools for me. It was also great fun to spend a day in the company of craftsmen passionate about working with wood.
