In the 12 week course we
will concentrate on basic hand skills but to a very
high level. After fettling and preparing your own
basic hand tool kit, we will learn many fundamental
skills and we will also use the workshop machinery.
Safety is always my priority and we will also learn
about routine maintenance and setting up of the
machines. The aim of the course is for you to
improve your skills and work towards exhibition
quality results.
Drawer making and fitting, mortice and tennon,
dovetailing and frame and panel techniques will also
be included. |

For examples of work
done by students on previous long courses, please
see students. Work is designed with David's
assistance to suit the aims and abilities of each
student. All work is kept by the student and many
of these pieces were done as commissions. Several
prizes have been won in National competitions.
