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.

 

Long course students:
Jim, Kevin, and Andrew,  with David and Hebe the workshop cat

 

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.
