Raku with John Wheeldon

By Petra Rohr-Rouendaal
The Raku course was very good. I enjoyed learning about two different types of Raku firing and it was good being able to go home with a sample pot. John Wheeldon was extremely helpful and answered all our questions. One suggestions- inevitable the participants will buy equipment from you and it would be better to have a least two staff members at hand to take our orders during the time we had to buy. Some of us missed John's teaching because we were queuing up to place our orders. Generally there was a bit too much time waiting around. Maybe we could have had a print out about the Raku technique we could read while waiting?
Lunch was great and it was good to meet other people interested in the Raku firing.

PickOne Weaving Course

Exceptional tutor, equal amounts of cheer + work...with a cosy scarf to end it all! Loved this course.

One Day Woodturning

By Paul Lamming
Having acquired my Father's woodturning lathe and not having a clue how to use it. I was surprised to find that Sara, my wife, had booked me on to a one day course with Bob as a birthday present. After sharpening my Father's old tools we put them to use and in what seemed like no time at all had created an ash bowl and, an apple from a piece of beautiful elm. The day had whizzed by. With Bob's masterful guidance, and corrective surgery in places, the finished products were great. Emerging from the class far from competent but now instilled with confidence I feel able to practice further on my own and also know what other accessories I need to add to my armoury to venture further into the woodturning craft. A great day, thanks to Bob and also to his wife for the lovely home cooked ham and pickles for lunch. Highly recommended.
