Top 10 Best Woodturning classes, courses, learnings kits and gifts in the UK

This class is mainly for people who have their own lathe, but anyone can attend. It won't turn you into a skilled woodturner - that takes long hours of practice in your own workshop. But this is an opportunity to troubleshoot and refine your technique. You will learn how to avoid tool catches and get a finish that needs little sanding. It will give you a foundation to build on later. You are welcome to take along your own turning tools if you wish so that Terry can check their condition for you. Terry will clearly explain and demonstrate the proper use of the different spindle turning tools. There will be plenty of hands-on practice time. Classes are taught on a one-to-one basis, allowing Terry to give you the benefit of his undivided attention. He is a very experienced turner and a patient, friendly and approachable tutor

This half-day workshop is a perfect introduction for children & adults alike to learn how to use whittling knives safely and effectively. Ideal for families who want to practise woodcraft at home, on camping trips or out in the woods! Together as a pair, each parent/adult and child will use traditional green woodworking tools to whittle and decorate your very own marshmallow-toasting fork (with rigorous product testing to follow!) and carve a butter spreader – again, the finished product will be put to the test by making some well-earned snacks! *Bristol Tree Craft is a non-for-profit organisation, sometimes we may have to cancel or postpone courses if they areLess then 50% undersubscribed.
